People who wear wrist watches 'upside down' i.e. with the face on the underside of their wrist.

Twats.

Why? I do that. Makes more sense as the wrist turns naturally that way. Also more comfortable and, well, I copied my dad as a boy and have worn it like that ever since.

But do you wear your watch on your 'mouse' hand? I do, and my watch would just get scratched to shit if I wore it that way.

People who insist on leaving their backpacks on whilst standing on a heaving train.
That's just asking for someone to nick something from them, naive tourists.

Bit of a result in relation to the Samsung Galaxy story.  I received a lengthy email from Very today effectively saying following various conversations with affected customers, they have decided to honour the incorrect price, but at a maximum of 1 per customer.  They've also given £30 as a goodwill gesture off my next order.

Oh well one is better than none
And £30 up into the bargain
Will teach them to check prices before they advertise them

I'm not an ageist (considering I'm getting on a bit  Wink ) but jeez. There was an elderly lady tonight who I gave way to at a roundabout in calne. She proceeded towards chip at about 8mph. She got to the bit outside st Mary school (parked row of cars), went around them so wide that she was about 2ft from the kerb on the other side of the road  Roll Eyes . She stopped because the Beemer coming the other way had a gap that a push bike couldn't get through. The Beemer driver then had to mount the kerb to let the biddy proceed. I could have driven up the gap she gave the parked cars. She really shouldn't be on the road. No

That one will be useful to me once I move. I've tried going up Hook Street to Wootton Bassett a few times but you're constantly fighting against the flow of traffic in the single lane bit.
