I noticed a few weeks ago that our local Co-op was selling packs of hard boiled eggs. I know youngsters don’t cook much nowadays, but that one rocked me a bit.
They have been around for quite a while, and my reaction when I first saw them was exactly the same as yours.What t
t at Halfords thought it a good idea to sell Ad-Blue in five litre plastic pouches with finger holes to carry them which then try to sever your fingers? It does actually say on the pouch to support the base with one hand, but it sells the pouches on a twofer offer, so how does that work?

I just tt it on the kitchen work surface and then most of the time it peels off, but sometimes you get a defective egg and it refuses to peel, so you end up with a right mankey looking effort.
I do also stick it in cold water as soon as it's done.

Sticking em in cold water stops the yolks going grey, and t
tting them on the kitchen counter and they're doddle to peel!Says someone who eats about 10 per week (minimum)

People that describe where some elusive part is on a car in an internet forum when a photograph with an arrow pointing to it would save hours of swearing and searching. You've only gone to the forum or group in a state of frustration and desperation. Topped by people who get stroppy and just repeat their hopeless instructions when you ask for a picture.

When people park their car and the wipers are not in the correct 'resting' position and instead halfway across the screen.
Extra annoyance for me if the front wheels are not straight as well. So busy they just had to park at speed and jump out.

Something that annoys me pretty much on a daily basis is
That my boss and a fellow colleague don't realise, no matter
How much I tell them, that when typing an email they don't
Need to add line breaks when typing as Outlook will automatically
Wrap the text depending on the window size.
Add to that the auto-capitalisation that Outlook adds after a return
Any emails received from them tend to look like this!!
