Saturday night TV - Graham Norton - Denise Van Outen - Surfing on a Saturday Night when I should be out having a beer but I'm broke - My Boiler that has broken down and is going to cost me a packet and I'm broke - Jody from that series with Norton - Everything.
wife's away for the weekend so me and my oldest boy sat and watched I AM LEGEND with Will Smith - bloody good film .
Agreed - I was pleasantly surprised. However, the ending was utter shoite - I heartily recommend you watch the alternate ending, its ten times better than the cinematic one.
saw that the assaination of jesse james by the coward robert ford,with brad pitt,forget pitt casey affleck as ford is excellent,good film,and shows more than the actual deed.

It's funny how so many good films have crap endings. Also lots of crap films have fantastic trailers, I've been had a few times!
A Spice girls song playing over a sound system in the HSBC bank.
If I want to listen to that sort of music, I will find a 90's disco to go to
What's it doing in a bloody bank....
God I sound like a miserable old sod but maybe if the HSBC spent more time just being a bank instead of trying to be a hip cool place that is really just a BANK, then maybe the world might be a SLIGHTLY better place... ;)
Going out to my car with my brief case and papers etc in one hand only to find that my car key is in the trouser pocket on the same side.
Especially irritating if it's raining, because you can't put the stuff down on your car bonnet or the ground to swap hands and get your key out.
People who wear trainers with their suits for the arduous journey to work.
Ecomentalists.
People who are amazed at price of petrol when compared to the equivalent cost of bottled water or beer.

Cyclists who dont believe red lights and zebra crossings relate to them.
Car drivers who seem to think there are no cyclists.
Women in shiny tights
People over 15 years old skateboarding.

Blimey, I'm guilty of three things on that list regularly!
I agree with the not saying thanks for holding open a door - a guy at work did this to me two days running last week, today I just let the door close on him.
Also, people who press the door close button on the lift the second after its opened, without letting anyone waiting get in. If you're in that much of a hurry then use the stairs!
How about this then.
Why is it that 99 times out of a 100, that if you throw a spoon into an empty sink that has the tap running it 'always' seems to end up directly under the stream of water thus covering yourself and everthing around the area in water.
It's f'ing uncanny I tell ya but it happens way too often (at least to me) to be a coincidence.
On several occassions I've ended up even more wet because you have to reach over to turn the sodding tap off!
Cyclists who dont believe red lights and zebra crossings relate to them.
How about cyclists who can ride on the pavement - am tempted to trip them up.
Taxis that fill up bus stops to wait for fares when there is a double yellow line and a no waiting sign. I have often caught a bus at one and have had to walk out into the road to hail a bus. I am tempted to ask the driver if they are driving a bus (given that they are waiting at a bus stop) and insist on paying no more than what the bus fare would, which given that I hold an english concessionary pass, is nowt.

Ever thought about no throwing the spoon in the sink in the first place ; -0

Well yes of course but I've always liked a challenge and anyway it's become a kind of perverse ongoing torture!
Hope you don't mind me bumping, it's not really worth a new thread: I have just watched an oldish film on the telly and spent over an hour of it trying to remember the name of one of the actors. I gave myself 'til the end of the film rather than spend all night on it but when the credits started rolling THEY shrunk the picture to a miniscule size in order to advertise another programme. I know my eyes are dodgy at the moment but you'd have needed perfect 20/20 vision and a magnifying glass to read it! Do They really have to do this? So I don't know the name and to make it worse the missus reckons she got it straight away!
1.The Little hole they put in coffee shop cups that are guarenteed to poor molten hot liquid on you. 2. Camp celebrities. Louie Spence is a prime example 3. people who think it's funny to make up takeover bullshit and start it as a new thread on CL. 4. Sweetcorn in sandwitches 5. Bank charges
the fact it takes me 30 seconds at most to get money out of a cash machine, yet it takes every other person ive ever been behind what seems like 45 minutes.

Coat hangers.
McDonalds staff who ask if you want a 'meal' when all you've asked for is a Big Mac. If I'd have wanted a Big Mac meal I would have fu**ing asked for one.
Carrier bags.
Halifax adverts-smug twats.
Old people who wear baseball caps.

Forgot about those Halifax adverts. The most annoying ever.
Sorry but must disagree with Macronate and ValleyGary. Why us old 'uns wear baseball hats is not because we're pretending to be young but because we can borrow/nick them off our kids/grandkids for nothing. They've got loads they never wear and if you sit in the East or Lower North at the start of the season you need a decent peak on your titfer to keep the sun out of your eyes.
Halifax Adverts.
Old cunts that drive at 40 mph on 60 mph roads then scatter everyone as they drive through residential areas at the same speed.
Politicians,all effing crooks they havent all of them yet.
ASLEF. (and Im A train driver)
Celtic fc plus everything about them.

Add to that Sunday papers cant anyone just do a sports paper that actually has sports not some birds tits.I dont want all the rubbish that comes with a sunday paper,ie 20 odd supplements
its not so much the old person in a baseball cap, its the way they wear them. flat peaks are a no no. bend them a little bit please....and no i dont wear a cap like a rude boy.
People who buy a fast food meal, put the rubbish back in the bag and then throw it out of a car window (moving or not).
Why not stick it on the floor/ back seat/parcel shelf until it can be better disposed of ?
0845/0870 numbers trying to make money for the holders by disguising them as local/fixed rate calls etc.
www.saynoto0870.com is excellent for the "use my inclusive minutes" alternative numbers.
Stewards who say "you can't stand there because it is an emergency exit"
If there is an emergency I will be in the right place and out of the there like a shot - someone has to be the first to escape.
People who work in customer facing service/consumer environments who can't speak much English.
Just makes everything much harder in the long run.

People that don't say thankyou when you hold the door open for them.
People that hussle onto the tube before you have got off. I now leave the shoulder in, but does that make me as bad as them?!
Lorries overtaking lorries one at 55mph the other at 56mph on a dual carriageway going up a hill
If I want to listen to that sort of music, I will find a 90's disco to go to

Combined effect is something between a tidal wave and the impact of the truck drivers on a fuel dispute blockade.
Don't try driving in North London then. Lived in Muswell hill for 4 years and no-one acknowledges you in that neck of the woods.
