Drivers who don't notice the lights have changed! Driving to my Doctors surgery earlier today, the journey has 6 sets of lights, one of which is a pedestrian crossing. I was behind a van that was behind some sort of Ford and we hit 4 out of the 6 sets as they changed to red. Annoying enough. The t
t in the Ford sat at the first set, after it had changed back to green, for long enough for the van driver to give a quick toot on the horn. Next set on red, he, or she, sets off as it changed to green. Great. The next 2 sets, fkin red again, back to annoying. The tt in the Ford had to be reminded he, or she, could fking set off on green at both of them! If you're that fking unobservant dozy, hand in your fking licence you annoying , so the rest of us can get on with our fking lives!

Caravan enthusiasts. Their total lack of self awareness awareness why no restaurants want them in. Why they are discriminated’ against.
This has been triggered as I’m in a local curry house and a bunch of them just walked in. Gobby little ste starts calling the shots and when told they aren’t being served goes straight into ‘are you serious boys, you know who my dad is etc’
fking pondlife. The reason they were denied was because last time a table of 12 left without paying and trashed the table.

People whose back wipers were turned on intermittent wipe when it was raining once and have been screeching across the dry screen ever since, probably with the rubber coming off the blade.
How do you not notice / see / hear this? Do you ever glance in your rear view mirror?
Good indication of a st driver to avoid.

I was once sat in the back of a hire car being driven by a work colleague on the way back from a meeting. He inadvertently turned on the intermittent rear wiper, so I mentioned it and got a snappy reply. He didn't turn it off and by the time we got back to the office an hour later the wiper blade was smoking away nicely People whose back wipers were turned on intermittent wipe when it was raining once and have been screeching across the dry screen ever since, probably with the rubber coming off the blade.

Doctors, or at least mine.
You can't actually speak to anyone, everything has to be done on line via their app. If you walk in, you're told to go away and use their app.
This morning however, their on line app is closed so you can't do anything. It's an app, that's on line, how can it be closed??
I just get the feeling that they don't actually want to do the "doctor" part of the job anymore but they can't be that busy as they are still taking on new patients...

I went and pulled the stalk back 1 click and it (un surprisingly!) stopped.
Me - the wiper's fine, I just switched it off.
Her - That wasn't it, I switched it off and it wouldn't stop.

I gave my wife a lift to the station this morning. 6.4km with 17 sets of traffic lights!
I didn't have quite that many on the way to giving my wife a lift to the office this morning, but on the way back home there was a set of temporary lights for some very long term roadworks 20ft past the lights for a pelican crossing. So you sit in the queue waiting to go through the roadworks, and someone decides they want to cross the road at the crossing just as the road works lights go green, meaning you now sit at a red light watching the green light beyond it slowly go back to red again.
