Buskers who play with recorded backing tracks. Particularly the guy outside Charing Cross with the violin. He isn’t that good and he’s cheating.1

Been looking at a bike on eBay, it’s £1000 but noticed this morning that eBay have a 10% code day. Decided by the time I got home that I wanted to buy it only to discover that the 10% code ran out at midday!0

Vox pop news reports. Especially the ones where they go to some small town, interview half a dozen people and play three of each from two diametrically opposed ideas giving the opinion that they are both equally valid. It's lazy and it's worse than uninformative, it's often misinformative.1

Dog shows are ok, unfortunately they insist that the dogs owners come along too and that’s where the problem lies. 😉Blackheathboy said:Dog shows, dogs are great pets and very loyal, Isn’t that enough.

It's about context. I want facts or opinions based on stated facts not just blether from an ignoramus - whichever side of the argument they are on.Stig said:Vox pop news reports.

I have for many years carried a Parker jotter pen - this following an incident many years ago when a cheap leaking biro ruined a new coat first time out. Anyway just so happened to notice the price of a new one in Ryman today is sixteen quid! Jeez I'd have thought £5/6 would be about right.0

Annoys me too, but if it’s an operational delay on the part of the airline, then why not?SporadicAddick said:

Recently delayed over three hours at a Turkish airport but it seems like an eternity when the airline advises you to get to the airport two hours before the scheduled departure. Most airlines are fair game and deserve all they get imo, especially when they bump up prices with allocated seating, extra baggage allowance etc.0 -

4 hours late and dumped in the wrong city with a 2 hour train to get to the right one. Yep I'd say that warrants a claim.SporadicAddick said:

The smelly spreader decided to try and talk to me the whole flight. Are the headphones in and reading a book not enough of a sign that I want to be left alone. Don't even let the gf talk to me on flights.0 -

They thought it was fixable. Then it wasnt. They found us a new plane but our crew weren't authorised to fly it. Then the original plane was fixed but only for one flight (inspiring confidence) but the full repair couldn't be done at Basel so had to go to Geneva!
Still on a train when we should have been there at 3pm. Love it.0 -

It's shit when that happens. Technical issues have been deemed by the courts as "ordinary circumstance" that is within the control of the airline so, whilst it may not make up for the disruption you've had, it's likely you'll be entitled to compensation under EU261 legislation. Hopefully you get to enjoy the rest of the trip and revel in the fact that, as a true Charlton fan, you've had the opportunity to get some new train numbers in your jotter - every cloud....cantersaddick said:

A bloke has just sat next to me on a practically empty bus and proceeds to take off his shoes and put his smelly feet up. To think we got rid of capital punishment3
