Girl's ponytails that bob about when they're running.

People going on adventure holidays paid for by their friends and colleagues because it's a "challenge" and they're raising money for charity.

If you want to have an exciting holiday in a far-flung destination don't expect me to pay for it you .

Yes but when they're.....what? Facing away from you on all fours? Well yes, that's quite sexy but when they run the bloody hair doesn't bob in time to their footfall. It's very annoying.

People on 'Rip Off Britain' who live in a million pound house and then feel 'ripped off' because they were paying £15 a month more than the cheapest broadband cost, despite admitting they were very happy with their current deal and provider.



In fact, people in general who complain that they arnt getting the best deal and yet havent looked around for any alternatives to what they're on, and then have the fking cheek to complain that the company they are with didnt ring them to offer them a cheaper service or lower price. What the fk is wrong with you?! Idiots.

perhaps someone has been secretly adding layers of soil to that patch of land over the years....

the plot thickens
There are churchyards in the City of London that are raised several feet above the surrounding level by the volume of cadavers within. They had to stop using them in the end because of the arms and legs sticking out.

Raised pitches always alarm when when players run over the line and slide down the slope into the advertising hoardings.

They always manage to just get through the lights too, leaving them to turn red just as you get to them.

Todays annoyance is pedestrians on busy pavements with lots of people walking in both directions taking the racing line when turning a corner, thus taking them face to face with someone coming the other way rather than take a wider arc.

Perhaps we shoud have pavements with white lines down the middle, like roads, with overtaking only at designated places.

Plus shoulder mounted battery powered indicators and a 'phone zomie approaching' alert system.

It would seem both sensible and prudent, especially in this era where everyone walks around with their face buried in their phone.

I deliberately don't move for people like that now.

I suspect someone in the "Rip Off Britain" office probably came up with the idea for "Shop/Eat well for less". People spend too much, but can't figure out for themselves how to spend less by either (a) buying less stuff, or (b) buying cheaper versions of the same amount of stuff.

I don't usually, when I'm local. I'll let out a bit of a noise before they walk into me, though. In a city, however, I wouldn't dare risk getting stabbed.

The number of cars burned in this town since I moved here (2015) has gone up again. Saturday night, while firefighters were putting out the first car, another one was set on fire across the road. A few months ago, I think 2 cars and a bin were set on fire. Someone petrol bombed a house in a non-random attack even earlier this year. 6 cars burned the year before. It's a rural town of 25000 people. The fires are mostly confined to a small area. Unfortunately I live in that small area. I guess that's CCTV on my list of "things to install".

CCTV cameras burn nicely too. I'd move, if it's at all possible.
