Today's "What Gets My Goat" - NO POLITICS!

[DILLIGAFF]

As I haven't had a good moan for a while, here are a few.................

1.  The current trend to start every sentence with "So"

2.  The current fashion to go everywhere clutching a mug of coffee. There is even a company selling "take-away" coffee cartons that you take home, pour in hot water and then take out with you?? I call these peeps "coffee mugs"

3.  The Americanisation of cutlery handling including ever more elaborate ways of incorrectly holding the simple knife and fork.

4.  Mobile phone users who have their calls on speaker so every call becomes a conference call involving all within earshot.

5.  The growing trend for drivers to park just wherever the FOC they like with absolutely no regard for the inconvenience of others. I left home recently to find a van parked across my drive, when there were ample marked spaces available. It is now quite common to see vehicles parked with all four wheels on the pavement, or right on the corner of busy road junctions.

Right........rants over time for happy hour.
