Ooh yes Nonnie to that last one! Gets on my wick too! grin

As a couple of others have said I don't hate anything or anyone. I think most of the things which have been said are slightly irritating but I certainly do not hate them.

I am grateful that I live where I do and therefore don't experience many of the above.

I would add to the irritating things: GNs who don't read previous posts and as a result say what has already been said - sometimes several time!

People who, when you ask how they are, tell you their life story but don't even ask how you are.

Snobbery

Smugness

Litter louts
Greed-as in people who pile their plates skywards at a restaurant Carvery.
Parents glued to their mobile devices whilst their toddlers are ignored.

1. People who get of the escalator and stop dead, trying to decide which way to go. Shift!
2. People who talk on the phone whilst being served in a shop. So rude.
3. Bad language, especially when there are children are around.

Agree with you about Strictly Rosequaartz, I love the programme, but all the screaming and constant clapping throughout drives me mad. The clapping even drowns out some of the singer/celebs sometimes. bad service anywhere. standing on ceremony. pretentiousness.

1.People who pick up dog poo and then leave the plastic bag in the hedge
2.People who don't pick up dog poo
3.Unsolicited phone calls, post and emails.

aromart I rarely, if ever, see nurses travelling in uniform - what I do see out and about in the streets of London and on public transport are agency carers who are making their flying visits to their patients.

There are also district nurses but very few of them are in uniform nowadays.

I'm interested in where you see nurses travelling in uniform.

LullyDully Fri 16-Oct-15 13:05:37

Not sure about nurses who travel in uniform?????????

oldie730 Fri 16-Oct-15 11:57:44

Agree with almost 100% of gripes posted.

Can't think of anything else, will probably get inspiration when this has been posted.

Ahh! Hate it when I can't remember things!

mumofmadboys It's a long running story of a very "difficult" relative of Kitty's.

Nanalogue Fri 16-Oct-15 11:00:28

Dishonesty
Injustice
Cruelty, especially to children

Not lighthearted, sorry, but heartfelt.

And, I do mean HATE! Oh, that feels better!

People who are so engaged with their phone they are oblivious to whoever they are with, particularly their children. I remember being in the tropical fish department in a garden centre when a little boy was trying to engage his mum saying "mummy look at this fish" over and over. The mother in question just didn't look up from her phone and her child was becoming increasingly frustrated, it made me sad for him that she wouldn't share his fascination.

People who have loud conversations in public littered with really bad language and are overly loud.

People who ill treat their children and their animals.

nannypink1 Fri 16-Oct-15 10:19:59

People who don't acknowledge you when you stop yr car to let them through. Rude

Self service checkouts

Nelliemoser Fri 16-Oct-15 10:03:04

1. Litter and fly tipping.

2. Drivers who drive too close behind.

3. Arrogant gits who behave as if they own the world.

Being called a bleeding heart whatever, because I care

My mother in law

LullyDully Fri 16-Oct-15 09:33:52

Wow not much left. So all of the above.

I have a dog phobic GD so don't appreciate the people with huge dogs with huge teeth who insist she strokes the lovable old thing, who loves children, whilst she screams. Don't like them much.
