    Having some miserable sod tutting and complaining, behind me, when Im sorting out my tickets putting me right off, messes me up so Im stuck there for ages.
  • The amount of temporary roadworks that there are atm,literally everywhere
    Well do you want the potholes filled in or not 
    trouble is they are often just making new holes which they don't fill properly.
  • I'm sure this must've been raised before, but the dark quality of so many modern TV dramas. 

    I read this could be due to the switch from analogue to digital, the saving on lighting, the saving on background detail or most likely the choice of production staff on artistic detail.  It may not be a particularly sophisticated view that I have, but I just wish that someone would turn the lights on.   
    The amount of detectives that sit in the dark with a small lamp on is ridiculous.
    And the obligatory bottle of whisky in the bottom drawer.

    Its a bastard, the council's try and squeeze in everything in the half terms and holidays which is fair enough as the roads are a joy when kids aren't in school but yes, it kind of fucks things up for anyone else using the roads especially with delivery drivers thinking stopping in the middle of the road with their hazard lights on is fine 
    What pisses me off is they dig an hole, put loads of barriers up, temporary traffic lights and then bugger off for a week. They should have to pay (a large amount) for every hour that they have dug a hole for a utility or some other reason, and caused disruption. That may speed things up. The money earned can be shared with the council, and me for thinking it up. I will monitor the invoice payments from my yacht in Monte Carlo.

    That maddens me too. Problem is for thr utilities like the water boards, UKPN and SGN we subsidise them anyway and annoyingly but maybe sensibly local authorities cant use fines generated from roadworks to fatten up other budgets. Once they can you watch roadworks become even worse than they currently are 
  • There are penalties for over running roadworks already.
    I think contractors might factor them in to their charges.
  • The music on the audio is like being on hold for the dentist
  • Bing bong, exsqueeze me

    The Colchester park and ride car park, barely moved for over an hour now. 

    Edit. Eventually a member of staff there just lifted the barrier and everyone was out fairly quickly. Ridiculously badly organised.

    I’m so pleased that I have no idea what this is about 🥸
  • People that wear outdoor shoes into swimming pool changing rooms. 
    Are you suggesting some sort of lobby outside the changing room to change your footwear before entering the changing room?

    im not sure how practical that is. 

    I don’t see many people wearing outdoor shoes around the swimming pool area ie post getting changed. But I do agree some seem to think flip flops worn outside of the pool environment are ok when clearly they are not. 
    Last time I was at Bromley Pavilion pool they had somebody at the door making you take shoes and socks off or wearing the shoe covers before entering the changing rooms.
    That was last year

    ..... if only there were other Charity shops that they can leave them with.
  • Agree we must have about a dozen in the high street or maybe better not to leave stuff outside?

    Rip-off Britain. 

    Going abroad and seeing things like a jumbo-sized can of Gillette shaving cream for half the price of a much smaller can that we're sold in the UK.
