    Things that annoy you

    But they are saying over 30% of people admit doing it, so you can only surmise that some posters on here are definitely doing so.

    Things that annoy you

    Yep, I did it just once too. It was in about 2003 I think and I was working at Siskin Drive industrial estate. Very important phone call came through from our client in Portugal as I was driving, and I had to take it. I was just on the industrial estate road though and picked up the phone and...

    Yep and you will get retailers into the mix and they will have ads like 'Get this special offer sofa before it's scone!'* *Obviously doesn't work if for scone you say scone instead of scone.

    Paralympics

    Bloody hate commercial TV at times. Just watching the wheelchair rugby live on Channel 4, GB v Canada and with the scores tied and with just 40 seconds remaining, the TV host pipes in and says 'Sorry, but there we have to leave it!' WTF!! 'Don't worry though' she adds, 'You can pick up the...

    Things that annoy you

    Totally agree. It angers me. If you have to brake quickly there is no way you can control the vehicle as well just one handed.

    Things that annoy you

    As per the topic of the day today about people using their mobile phones while driving, it's entirely that! Really makes me annoyed. When I am out walking the dog I see so many people on their phones whilst driving. I have a Bluetooth device in my car. Cost about £11 and it is on my sun...

    Things From Your Childhood

    Well lucky you! I was an only child apart from my two brothers. Would have loved what you had.

    Celtic's gradual demise.

    Been a very clear demise to my mind. They used to be the second best team in the whole of Glasgow. Now look at them!

    Crimewatch

    Or alternatively, kids can see it is Crime watch, know it is about a hideous and tragic murder right at the heart of their own community and indelibly etched onto the minds of most of Britain, and therefore accordingly, show respect.

    Things From Your Childhood

    Off licences. Many memories of going to a pub and being served pop and crisps (shake the salt sachet ones) from the outdoor hatch. Outdoor, free public paddling pools. Hop on, hop off buses. Going round mates' houses and knocking on doors to see if they would come out to play (and they...

    Stadium in Knowle or Meriden? (NOT stadium news)

    No not at all. We move to Knowle and I think we can expect crowds of at least 2,000.

    Do you have a nickname for your missus that she is unaware of?

    And if so, what is it? My daughter and I call my missus Two. She is unaware. Everything with her is it's 'too cold, or too loud, or too hot, or too controversial, or too far, or too late, or too much.'

    Stadium in Knowle or Meriden? (NOT stadium news)

    Yeah, and not the local Conservative party one.

    Paralympics

    Yeah, but obviously my wife doesn't 'get it.' She has called it 'embarrassing, sad and very cruel.' Can't be arsed to go over it all again with her. :(

    Women says the most stupid things

    My missus does that all the time. A brand new, never seen before programme and she will ask what is going to happen next! The power to predict the future is not something to be sniffed at though and would be a lovely string to my bow.

    Stadium in Knowle or Meriden? (NOT stadium news)

    Isn't Knowle close to Solihull? Rather posh isn't it? Don't think they will like the oiks moving in to be honest. Same with Meriden.
