A3 north up the hill to the top of Wimbledon Common has a bus and HGV only lane.
There should be more of these.
Not on that part of the road, its stupid and badly thought out frown

At the top of the hill is a set of traffic lights where drivers turn left onto Roehampton lane, the bus and HGV lanes stops just before the lights but if there are buss-es and Lorry's on the inside lane which have just left the inside lane bus/HGV section, it blocks people from filtering left causing even more chaos banghead

Printers no longer coming with the cable to connect them to the computer.

Sure you didn't buy a wireless one? biggrin



How about films where someone is sat in the dark at a computer and the text is projected onto their face? Not so much with later ones but sci-fi films from the nineties seem to be the worst offenders.

Actually, I don't believe they have ever come with cables. Which is, in itself, annoying.

And TV dramas where cars' dashboard lights illuminate the occupants' faces.

Cars (& other vehicles) with lights not working, especially when they use main beam or fog lights to compensate. I appreciate a few of them may not realise, some realise & will rectify it ASAP but about 1 in 6 cars on the drive home tonight had faulty lights...

You can feel a cold coming on, and SWMBO asks what the matter is. You tell her you think you're getting a cold and immediately she goes off on one with patronising drivel about man flu, how you're dying, poor diddums, don't expect any sympathy from me, just get on with it like I do etc.

Yes love, like you do, you bloody drama queen. Of course you 'just get on with it', but you bloody make sure everyone knows you're just getting on with it. As for me, you asked me what was wrong, I told you I was getting a cold, that was it.

Now fk off and get me a Lemsip...

Packets of small sliced meats (salami etc).

The peely bit is at the top. Yet they layer the contents so the slice at the top of the packet is the one at the bottom of the pile.
Superb one yes

Also, I've been "trained" to recycle. I used to get it always wrong - what could and could not be recycled I essentially got the wrong way round. So, Gina explains to look on the packet and it tells you if you can recycle or not. All good.

Do you know (you probably do) how little of the stuff we buy from supermarkets is recyclable? So so little. It's ludicrous. What spurred me on to this is your sliced meat story - those 100% plastic see through tubs are NOT recyclable. Utterly ridiculous.
