@VladMagic Posted November 24, 2017 Share Posted November 24, 2017 People that continually go on and off the accelerator when driving. Drives me absolutely nuts! Why can they not simply press the pedal to the desired point to achieve the speed they want rather than ON, off ON OFF ON!!! Apart from being ridiculously bad for fuel consumption its the most annoying driving characteristic out there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

luckyBatistuta Posted November 26, 2017 Share Posted November 26, 2017 7 seater cars in the UK. Why the hell do all the 7 seaters here have a 2+3+2 and yet all the American ones have a far superior setup with a 2+2+3. With the American setup, when you get in the back to the centre seats, you can move around quite freely and also access the back 3 seats no problem, as there is more than enough rooom to get through to the rear. With the UK setup, you have no room as soon as you enter the back, as it's 3 seats in the middle row and to get to the rear is a joke as you have to tip the seat forward and squeeze through.

Useless. You wouldn't have had much luggage space with the other either, as you would still have needed the back seat up. I've had a 7 seater in the UK for years and it's been great, 7 seats when you need them and loads of luggage space when rear seats folded. We go to the US almost every year and rent a 7 seater and they're far superior in my family's opinion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

doctor jambo Posted November 27, 2017 Share Posted November 27, 2017 Old folk in supermarkets I am there to buy a weeks worth of food, with my kids ( though the wife gets left at home as she browses stuff like candles, cushions and clothes and that is NOT why we are there- so she is banned) The kids and I are a well- honed machine- from the shop to the unpack of the trolley to the repacking and out to the car. I am not there to chat to the checkout dude. Nor to use 3000 vouchers , at least half of which have expired. It is not a social event There should be a special supermarket for lonely people to hang out in and buy reduced price ham and fish Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, if folk have no money the ATM should display a message like... "Sorry but you're skint so I'm gonna print out some fake looking money for you to take so you can keep your dignity. Take it and leave. Don't try the card again or start lieing to the person behind that there must be a fault as you have loads of money in your account thereby unsettling them to use the ATM.

Stuart Lyon Posted November 28, 2017 Share Posted November 28, 2017 RBS - glad I don't bank with them! Went into a local branch yesterday to see if I needed to make an appointment re registering a Power of Attorney. No need for an appointment I was told just fill in the form and bring some photo ID and proof of address. Went back this am to be told I needed an appointment! Luckily one was available for 10:30 so I only had a 15 minute wait. I turn up on time and ask for the bank employee I had the appointment with only to be told he still has someone with him and will be 5 or 10 minutes. 15 minutes later I asked what was happening and was ushered in to an office to speak to another assistant who promptly told me she had never processed one of these applications before. I offered her a copy of the POA but she said she couldn't accept it as it hadn't been certified by a lawyer. I pointed out to her that the front page of the POA had a web site address at which the document could be verified but she ignored this option. She then asked if I had the original with me and I told her I did so she proceeded to copy 7 of the 8 pages of the original that didn't have any lawyer certification on it just like my copies! WTF is the difference between her photocopy and mine? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brick Tamland Posted November 30, 2017 Share Posted November 30, 2017 Held up for nearly 90 minutes on the M6 because two Low loaders with humongous dumper trucks on them thought it would be a good idea to transport them early afternoon. Was proper seething when I eventually got to see what was causing the delay. Why transport them during the day when there are tens of thousands of cars/vans/HGV’s using the motorway? Why are 2 dumper trucks getting transported much more important than every other motorway user? Shift them after 10pm and before 5am when it’s empty you ignorant, selfish wankers. Nearly 7 hours to get to Coventry because of them. Tossers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Konrad von Carstein Posted November 30, 2017 Share Posted November 30, 2017 Don't know if this is the place for this but, the common cold, or more specifically the coughing fits I get when I'm over the worst. Yesterday, overtaking on the M8 doing 70mph I had a coughing fit, proper eyes bulging, gagging, stars and double vision - honestly thought I was going to lose control of the car and kill me and the Mrs...was into the inside lane as soon as was possible with a drop in speed. The above doesn't describe the feeling of absolute terror that I went through for what seemed like an eternity, it was almost like an out of body experience. **** viruses Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BM1874 Posted November 30, 2017 Share Posted November 30, 2017 Websites that had us and uk shops. 1) why have things available in one store (eg the us) that’s not available in the uk store? 2) why if it is available in the uk store, is it imported and add a massive charge onto it. the store I’m referring to is the Killers, love the band and although I find the pr media side of them irritating nothing grates more than their online store. they closed their uk store a while back so can only buy from us store with high shipping rates. They released a cd of their Christmas songs (I know )that was £$13.99 that turned into about £22 but as they are the only band I have eber bought every album on cd it had to be done. they have a book full of photos from one of their tours that follows them all over the world and in their life’s which is fairy limited edition and seems to be pretty interesting to me, $75 plus $71 import, £99 without potential import charges robbing gits Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
