Just returned from a day out in London. Travelling from Kings Cross to Newark I had the misfortune to sit opposite a 7 year old boy who had feet the size of Ian Thorpe, and legs like a bloody octopus. Grrrrrrrrrrr!!!!!

Seemed like it, they were never still the whole journey!
-- answer removed --
Doesn't an octopus have eight arms, two of which are often called 'legs'?
I was once on a plane to Jamaica, due to delays we were on the plane for 14 hours. I was desperate for a fag, and this kid behind kept kicking me in the back. I told his mother if he kicked me again I would light my fag and stick it in his eyes. Not good I know, amazing what the lack of nicotine can do.
Jeza, that is so annoying - either that, or tall men's knees :-(
Or being a tall man on a flight when the seat in front reclines.
Absolute agony
I was once on a plane with one of the Junior O's (who was under 2 at the time) sitting on my lap for the whole journey. The bloke in front reclined his seat as soon as he could, and despite repeated requests from me and the stewardess, he refused to have his seat upright. I have never been so uncomfortable in my life.
Retribution came when my son was squirming and kicking in discomfort and one of his shoes flew off in an upwards direction. It hit the man in front squarely in the face and gave him a nosebleed.
presume the little darling was travelling with parent/parents and they said nowt ? I would have had to say something after 10mins.
true story... had a pal whose sister was an air hostess on Philippines Airline and when they got an awful kid they would scrape their shoes on the carpet that ran down the aisle to build up static and then lean over and poke the kid giving it a small "electric shock" but smiling at the mother whilst doing so, kid could never actually explain what had happened to them and very few needed a second go.
what annoys me (sorry if it makes me appear intolerant) is young kids and toddlers crying and screaming on public transport

//what annoys me (sorry if it makes me appear intolerant) is young kids and toddlers crying and screaming on public transport //

I can put up with that providing there is a reason. What does annoy me though, is unruly kids with equeally as unruly parents who generally take no notice of them and continue to text and talk on their phone, eat and litter at the same time whilst reading OK and Hello, and the little darlings run riot.

Sorry, did I say reading OK and Hello, i meant to say, looking at the pictures!!
