What secretly annoys you?

[Lullabelle]

...and Alex Dowsett.

I'm really (secretly?) annoyed at the way the Brits have been left out...no Swift, no Dowsett, no Kennaugh, no Wiggo and no Millar.

I'm just waiting for the call to say that I've been left out of the race as well

where is the totty British support going to come from? We as Brits are great cyclists. I will boycott if they leave you out

It's not just old ladies - it tends to be women generally, I find. Most men have their wallet out and are ready to pay as soon as the stuff has been scanned.




Runs off before theclaud gives him *The Stare* for such a blatant generalisation about the laydeez...

Cilla Black, although if you know me, it isn't a secret at all.

People working in chip shops who apply the salt and then wash it off with vinegar. DO IT THE OTHER WAY AROUND YOU FOOL

No no no! The whole point is to use the vinegar to achieve a more optimum salt distribution. If you salt after, you only get salt on your top chips (and too much at that). Judicious use of the vinegar as a distributive agent, post salt-application, carries at least some of the salt to the lower layers, where it will bring more long-lasting satisfaction. Be grateful that the chip shop attendant is better informed than you appear to be; you are the beneficiary of his, doubtless highly-trained, expertise .

So when does the curry sauce go on?

Go and stand in the corner and think about what you just said. Sauce of any sort is for dipping and dipping only. Heathen.

I thinks I'm getting de ja vu

All my posts are pointless from the outset.

I concur. This one is an excellent example, as we knew this already.

We are taught from an early age to keep our purses out of sight as much as possible, to avoid some guy grabbing them and running off.

Inconsiderate gits who put rubbish out after the bin persons(pc awareness ) have been! I've just been out chucking some polystyrene packing back over some dossers wall.

 

[TheLondonCyclist]

I hate people asking to borrow money from me. They usually tend to forget they borrowed the money.

 

[TheLondonCyclist]

I also hate people asking to borrow my damn wifi thinking I'll forget I gave them the password... yeah, right.

 

[TheLondonCyclist]

I also hate it when women don't have their money ready at the till and end up looking for the money and going through pennies and all sorts. I feel like paying for their shopping and I have done on one occasion after she pored out all her coins.

If they do it properly, the basket of chips from the fryer will be briefly emptied into a sort of drip tray and stirred around to remove excess fat, then add vinegar and then salt so it is done evenly.
