Does anyone know why clothes shop have stopped putting the little cubes with the relevant size on hangers? It's not so bad just a little slower if rails are at a mid level. However, when you have high rails 6ft up or ones barely off the ground it makes looking for sizes virtually impossible when there's no bloomin' visible tag. Grrrrr, after a frustrating 20 mins either balancing on my tiptoes or on my hands and knees in H & M I harumphed off to the sanity of Debenhams, which means that I am now turning into my mother!
I dont get why though, I would have thought the cost saving would be minimal and it can't save an awful lot of time.
we use them at work and the amount that fall off and we end up going round picking them up is ridiculous! I see your point about not being able to easily see sizes though
Or when one does press the bell only for the driver to miss the stop anyway. Even though when the bell is pushed, a light appears on the dashboard and of course, a bell sound is heard.
The fact that the Tesco Extra I use still hasn't installed the 'Scan as you Shop' system. Yes, I rarely visit ASDA now.
What I find annoying is when you press the bell for a stop and a few seconds later someone else presses it. :mad:
Why can't people open their car doors without whacking the car next to them? :mad: I have a nice collection of dents thanks to morons who can not control their car doors.

I do agree with this but I also have some sympathy. I think some parking spaces are so ridiculously narrow just to fit more cars in that the occasional bump is inevitable.
9-5 on a Friday pees me off
I mean really???
why cant we all just have half day Fridays? Nobody does anything after lunch anyway
Or at least have "onesie" Friday where we can slob around
People on the train talking loudly on the mobile phones, not only the volume of their conversations but also the fact that they are talking absolute nonsense and there is nothing that could not have waited until they got off the train and called in private.
Another bug bear is people that do not know how to turn on the mute switch on the phones so that every keypress and every text message is heard - incredibly annoying on long train journeys.
People who say "Holland" instead of "the Netherlands" ("Holland" only refers to two counties of the latter).
The majority of the major towns and cities are actually in Holland, mind, so if someone was planning a stag weekend in Amsterdam it would be correct of them to say they were having a stag do in Holland.
If the stag do was in Utrecht, on the other hand...

Both of these! Have you come across anyone who has it so loud you can hear every word the person on the other end is saying too? :mad:
I sat next to a girl on the train once who had her phone on loud. She was playing a game, so we got every ding and dong that came from that. We asked her to turn it down, and she said no as she was expecting a call/message and needed to hear it. We reminded her a notification would come up on her screen so she would see, but she still refused. We had to put up with the ding and dongs for over half an hour

AAAAAARRRRGHHH! It is sooooooooo annoying!!!!! I am on the train now but fortunately there is not a phone in sight!!!!!
Another idiot not looking where there are going moan from me I was walking up the road to work when this woman came hurtling out of a shop, she had her head turned to the left and turned right! Smack bang into me and several other people including a couple of young kids where were nearly knocked flying.
Whose fault was it? Well it was all our fault for not looking where we were going.
At one of the stations I frequent every day, there are "Keep left" signs on the staircases. Yet the masses (I always seem to get to the stairs just as a giant group of fellow commuters is coming the other way) NEVER keep left!
An interesting argument right here on DS! There are 2 camps in that thread - one of which believes the same as me - that consumers are being mislead.
They're using the exact same slogan they did for years when they used cod. It's a trick! I'm gonna leave it there, because that is how I personally feel. If you don't feel that way, that's perfectly fine.
I refuse to eat in any establishment that lists paninis or panini's on their menu. Panini is plural FFS. A single one is a panino. Ever seen a panino on the menu? Hardly ever and it drives me mad

When the entire Surrey branch of the ‘I'm going to drive at a soul infuriatingly 20mph brigade‘ form an orderly queue in front of me when I am rushing to work. They tag team each other on each and every road I need to use.

I'm from Holland (as well as the Netherlands...) and I get annoyed when others (non Dutchies as well as fellow countrymen) correct me and go 'It's the Netherlands you know'. Irritating beyond belief!

How are they tricking you into believing there's cod in it if they aren't claiming there's cod in it?

You shouldn't park so close then.

Quite quiet?
