Things that annoy you beyond reason...? [Vol 3]

My bank.
Out of the blue they e-mail me asking me to call them on a particular number. I check the number and it is indeed my bank.
I call them, and they ask for some sort security code number they sent me about 4 years ago. I say I don't have it so they refuse to talk to me about what ever they asked me to call about. They won't even give me a clue whats its about!
I remind them that its them that have initiated the contact, but they still refuse to talk to me until I find the security code number.
At this point we finish the call and I'm none the wiser as to why they want to speak to me.

A. You can't pay with cash.
B. It's only been 6 months since my local Tesco got pumps which provided VAT receipts which I need.
Filled up the other day to the £99 max and drove off without getting one

Selfies, stupid concept done by equally stupid people, esp foreigners in London walking about, stopping dead and just getting their heads in view, here is me in front of Big Ben/Buckingham Palace/Tower of London/St Pauls, and you cant see any of the buildings, just their bloody heads.
Oh and a lot of them will have my digit in it as well as as i have to do emergency stops because they think that at that very spot, is the best place in the world to take the three hundreth picture of their stupid smiling faces. Mind you i did enjoy the utter chaos at the Changing of the Guard at Horse Guards, so much i went back the next day to get a repeat performance.
The grockles of all nationalities stream through the small arch to the parade ground and block the entrance, BUT they dont realise there will be 6 horses coming through behind them, and They stop for no one. As not many of the camera toteing visitors speak English the shouted phrase 'Make Way for the Queens Guard' has little effect until they get 2 tons of horse breathing down their neck, Now that would be a good selfie!!
Then they get the foot Guard marching through behind them and it all goes off again. and the best thing..Its FREE. But those bloody selfies I hate them.
