What gets your bacon on a daily basis?

1  this lousy dead mans shift I've gotta work for 8 more weeks

2 We've been invaded by " travellers"  on our local park. You cant believe the filth and damage. Some of them have moved a bit further away to a small park for kiddies.

Un bloody believable!!

People who carry on with a conversation on their mobile phone when they reach the pay desk in a shop, fumble to pay without saying a word to the cashier, and hold everyone up in the queue.  Similarly, people who suddenly answer their phone or text whilst you're in the middle of a conversation with them without even an "excuse me, do you mind if I answer this?"  Totally rude, in my opinion.

Write your comments here...

Totally agree with you, manners do not cost anything. . .   

And phone zombies, you have all seen them, walking along, head down, texting or gaming and when they walk right at you and have to look up they have the nerve to tut at you!!

I dont move out of their way on principal now,

I just turn slightly offering them a shoulder to walk into, much like bouncing of a brick wall. . 

And if they dare tut, I'll snatch that phone off them and . . . . . . . .     Winking

Not respecting others views?, agreed. We all have different takes on most subjects, we will disagree with some & agree with others but the respecting of the contrary views is something the intelligent do automatically, others prefer to trash those views & belittle. Not acceptable.

Agree entirely. Too much of what you say happens on this forum, sadly.

Cyclysts who dont use cycle paths that I as a tax payer have funded, but stupidly insist on riding on the highway.

I pay two lots of road tax so assume that I'm allowed to ride my bike on the road......as opposed to a litter strewn path full of pedestrians and that runs out after a couple of hundred metres?

cycle paths are too narrow and unsafe. I use them most of the time around town but not out of the major towns as you get hedgerows pushing you into the road, rubbish in the gutter & cars passing too close. Don't they know the distance they should pass by? car drivers think they can park anywhere, why not park against the cycle path instead of on it?  I'm sorry but as I am responsible for my own safety I will ride in the middle of the lane when going around corners, roundabouts and up hills. Once all cycle ways are guided like those past the Christie hospital cyclists will have less need to use the main carriageway but till then....�
