And another moan.  Why does Chatterbank have to be separate from all the other categories?  I presume it's because we are chatting instead of asking questions, but l forget to look at it.  

Latest Posts list isn't nearly long enough (this has fallen on deaf ears in the past, but other fora manage it much better).

Well I'm surprised to see this thread so poorly supported - moaning is what we're best at!

How about loud Christmas music in the supermarkets? I walked in and walked out again today it was so unbearable. I'll try a different supermarket before the weekend or try to find out when the quiet hour is! 

^^^ I'd rather have loud music in supermarkets than the occasional tinny sounds which break through the general noise levels when the volume is set too low!

OK, "I've got  little list" (The Mikado)

1. Folk who stop immedately after stepping off an escalator.

2. Motorists who cut up buses.

3. Motorists who ignore speed limits in urban areas and hoot at elderly folk crossing.

4. Folk who cough and sneeze in trains and buses without making any effort to contain it.

5. Pigeons who enter automatic doors in bus stations or shops then sihit everywhere.

6. The cutting service guy in B&Q who refused to cut my timber because "we only cut sheets". Bloody jobsworth.

7. IKEA store layouts.

8. Bus drivers who speed throughout the journey then stop for ages at unattended penultimate stop so they don't get back to the bus station early.

9. Parents who allow their sprogs to run around in shops, cafes, etc.

10. Southern Railway, who would be better named Southern Failway.

Phew, that was a satisfyling moan, thanks for the opportunity to let off steam.

First class list Canary. 
To add to my supermarket frustrations, the couple who bump into another couple and catch up on the year's news right in the middle of the busiest aisle. Made worse by the need to wish each other Happy Christmas and knowing what they've bought for all the grandkids. How they must have grown!
