People who don't charge their phones before heading out for the day, have a serial cable borrower at work that needs a charge before it's even midday.
I have a wife like that & to make matters worse she never seems to have a charging cable. They mysteriously disappear then she needs to borrow mine, which I have to protect so she doesn't "lose" that either. The reality is she doesn't lose them, she tidy's up & forgets where she's put them. Rather than look goes & buys another one or takes mine. Does the same with in car chargers. Whilst clearing out a cupboard a few weeks back found 4 charging cables & 2 in car charges. 
I saved a cable from one phone so I could have a cable in the car and one in the house.
This has now grown so I need one in the car, one in the bedroom, one in the living room and one in my laptop bag for work/hotels.
should any of these four be moved/break or go missing the hassle to fetch one of the others is ABR

Don't worry. You'll buy yourself a new phone soon and find that none of those four fit any more anyway.This has now grown so I need one in the car, one in the bedroom, one in the living room and one in my laptop bag for work/hotels.

My annoyance for the day is Estate agents. I've sold my house and want to buy another, you would think they might like to a return a call or two!

Given the way my family goes through them I just resigned myself to buying a dozen every year or so and have them scattered about the place so people can never say they can't find one.This has now grown so I need one in the car, one in the bedroom, one in the living room and one in my laptop bag for work/hotels.

How do some cyclists manage to ride without holding on to the handlebars? It seems like magic to me.
I used to ride 2 bikes at once. Recently I was forced to buy a new back wheel because riding without hands was impossible due to the massive buckle.
As a teenager I used to ride to school 2 miles and used to challenge myself to not hold on to to handlebars at all. Takes some planning in the rush hour. Mind you I treated the highway code like I'd treat the book of Mormon.
Pavements, one way streets the wrong way. Red lights, stop signs all treated with disdain.

Luckily they have an iphone whilst I have an android C charger so they don't pester myself, a cable costs a few pounds so I don't know why they don't buy one and leave it in their locker rather than ponce cables of others.

People who write their entire post in French.
Why? Do they just assume we all speak French? Do they only care about fellow French speakers?
Maybe take 10 seconds out of your life to do a quick copy and paste into Google and you might discover the reason!Why? Do they just assume we all speak French? Do they only care about fellow French speakers?
