    Being packed off to Munich for a case you know nothing about because the partner in charge doesn't fancy it

    Are you a private detective?
    Nothing so glamorous - patent attorney.
    Thought you might be @McBobbin when you said Munich. My first proper job up town was in the postroom of a patent attorneys (Withers and Rogers) about 20 years ago. Best mate is a patent attorney and would be surprised if we didn't know some of the same people as it's a small world.
    A small world of very strange people! We may well know some in common. I don't know too many people at W&R though... I don't tend to socialise full stop :D

    Always thought withers and Rodgers was an unfortunate juxtaposition. Clearly not rogering properly

    They definitely got the partnership name the wrong way around.

    Watching the West Brom/Ipswich game and one of the West Brom defenders helps his "injured" mate up and proceeds to say something to him whilst covering his mouth with his hand.
    Mate, nobody gives a fuck what you are saying.

    Having a handbag dumped in your lap every time you sit in the passenger seat of the wife's car.
    After 34 years it still grates like the first time.

    Is it made of sandpaper?

    I'm annoyed that they're breeding out the flavour from brussels sprouts. According to a BBC programme I just watched on the player.
    Seems counter intuitive to me. If you like sprouts you want their full flavour amd if you don't you still won't like the new bland flavours

    I've had enough of people drawing things in my coffee foam. Every coffee shop I go into, someone draws a flower or a heart in my latte. I just want to drink my coffee, not imbibe someone's artistic expression. I ordered a coffee not an Instagram photo.

    Today I ordered one and directly requested "No pattern in the foam." Got looked at like I was mad. But I must say, I enjoyed that coffee very much.

    It's an invasion of dignity.

    Bit like enforced "fun" initiatives at work where you are viewed as a miserable social pariah for flat out refusing to have any involvement in "wacky" corporate videos and other such silliness.

    Get the same reaction when walking through a busy station and the annoyingly bubbly zealots are handing out the latest sugar- filled crap energy bar or whatever they're promoting that day and the look of disbelief that you don't want to be one of the many frenzied masses stampeding over each others like rats to grab one because they're "free".

    It's a processed piece of rubbish you're punting not a prevention for all known disease.

    I’m like this with lager, “cram your poxy brand specific stemmed glass up your bum, I’ll have mine in a plain pint glass please barman....”

    "Hi Neil, I was wondering Neil, if you could possibly do me a favour please Neil?"
    'OK?"
    "What it is, Neil, is could you pass me the salt please Neil?"
    "Yeah, sure. Here you go."
    "Thanks Neil, that's great Neil."

    Etc. Really grates.

    If it grates, tell your wife to stop doing it.

    If my name was Dave then I'd be more annoyed at the Papa Lazarou impressions.
