Irritations - dump here thread
* At the crowded supermarket checkout, the dumb sod who stands there dreaming til s/he hears the total, and only then goes digging in the bag to find the money.
* At the station, the sod who feeds the week's small change into the ticket machine while the train is coming up.
* At the ATM, the sod who goes through a string of cards before finding one with enough money for the withdrawal, AND THEN studies the receipt carefully before slowing filing it in the purse/wallet.
* At the local cafe, the woman representing a table of six who goes to the counter to place the order while talking over everyone back to the table to clarify who wants what, and there's a queue waiting to get a quick take-away coffee.
Your turnCheers, Ern

People who refer to everyone from the UK as 'Whinging Poms' and then proceed to whinge about everything from; their job, other road users, petrol prices, the weather, the wife, the in-laws, the kids, other people's kids, the dog, the cat, the neighbours, their tools, what's on the telly, what's not on the telly, current fashions, current music trends, politics, politicians, current affairs, 'boat people', non-WASPS, everyone's incompetence etc. etc.
.
I know you believe you understand what you think I wrote, but I'm not sure you realize that what you just read is not what I meant.
Regards, Woodwould.

people that drive 10km/h under the speed limit when you can't overtake safely then accelerate to 20km/h over for an overtaking lane then slowing down again at the end
people that do something illegal/dangerous on the road then abuse you for giving a "what the hell are you doing?"It's only a mistake if you don't learn from it.

There's the caravan/camper trailer effect. When I'm towing one usually at 95 kph (actual) frequently a car will overtake on the assumption that at the next hill I'll be going too slow for them to sit behind, and then they drop below that when the hill appears and I've changed gears and haven't. So I end up breathing their exhaust.
Cheers, Ern
