We've got a sink plug strainer in the kitchen to catch all the crap from getting stuck in the trap and pipes underneath. Every time my wife drains the sink she removes it so the water drains quicker. I have explained to her why it is there but she would rather that every now and then that I either clear out the crap with some chemicals or by taking out the trap and cleaning it

Tell her the strainer is also there to stop vermin coming the opposite way up the pipe looking for food, rats ect!!

My missus refuses to empty that trap which is similarly annoying

My missus keeps the teabag in every cup and then doesn’t remove it when she’s finished. I’ve lost count of the times I’ve loaded the dishwasher next morning and they’ve been stuck in the cups. Boils my piss.

Programmes like "Sunday Brunch " where celebrities sit around waiting for food and fill the time with self indulgent tosh.

I had a van overtake me and go through the lights on red on sandpits lane. If a car was coming out from sandpits would have been game over.

Not a care in the world.

Cyclists that seem to have assumed that they don’t have look right when joining a main road - several occurrences recently !

My wife stopped at a red light and the car behind overtook and went through the lights. Unfortunately for him 2 cars behind him was a police car who then followed him and pulled him over

Trouble is Nick it's usually the lawful 1 who comes off worst. We need more red light cameras.

YouTube videos telling me how great it is to 'downsize'.

I've done it many times over 67 years and in every case it was a horrible experience.

Who pays these people?

E scooters. I’ve seen the future and we’d better get used to it. Spent some time this month in some Spanish and French cities and they are everywhere. Surprisingly they seem better regulated in Spain with helmets and driving on the road. In France they ride anywhere. Speed is amazing on some of them. All ages riding them too. One click and they are folded to take into a bar or restaurant with you so very easy to keep safe.

One more step towards never having to exercise again. I’ll stick to walking.

45 minutes to do 7.5 miles this morning

Mainly just thick people who hesitated at junctions. One woman for some reason didn't want to go through the lights when they went green so sat and waited 6 minutes until the next change.

Evri - don’t ever fucking send a parcel with them, and if you are buying something online and they are delivering, buy it from someone else.

Big Canley in the 90s vibes. Ranges from OK to downright depressing. House prices are OK though. Just a few too many people from Bedworth around.

Marketing emails. I mean I’m happy to have one a week, two at a push. But when you get two or three a day you’re clearly gonna unsubscribe. Shooting themselves in the foot.

Both Bedworth and Nuneaton just feel like endless suburban sprawl with hardly any pubs or restaurants (parts of Cov too)

That weird adjustment to your taste of smell when you've had a cold (or COVID) that means vinegar is really strong to the point of being unbearable

Common problem I guess. People can drive elsewhere. The town centre in Bedworth is truly depressing.
