A customer of mine is never happy and everything to him is nearly always boring or crap etc. He's funny though but deadly serious and his missus calls him Victor Meldrew ! So what bores you ?
For me its East Enders and all those soaps,politicians rabbiting on, crap music, cooking programmes, buses, holidays (overrated) cold callers,and DJ's on the radio. Any more ?

Can only think of two things that really bore me, as I don't bore easily and have an elongated pain/yawn threshold and that is motor racing and speedway.

Sorry, but I find both incredibly boring.

There are a lot of sports I don't like, but could still watch, but I don't think I could ever bring myself to watch F1 or a speedway match (game? Drive off? Rally?).

Well, amateur porn is technically reality TV, so I suppose I don't mean *all* of it.

(no I haven't, will check it out)
I don't know if you can get it in the UK but there are sources online. 12 groups of people just have to have a massive race around the world completing challenges on the way. Like one day they start in Austria and then have to race to Venice complete a maze then get a train to Rome do a bunny jump then fly to Paris and run up the Eiffel tower. Then they get 12 hours rest before they have to fly to Mumbai and race an elephant etc.

Buses?? How can you not like buses BBR? And the older the better. Something like a BMMO CM6 is almost orgasmic in its beauty. Almost.

Speedway bores me. Horse racing. Rugby union on a sporting front.

Reality tv in general is the worst. Utter shite and should be banned. All of it. No exceptions.

Mentioned on here before me and my son on a walking break in Scotland got bitten badly by midges and felt rough when we got back home. The great outdoors !
Just took my 8yo lad to Snowdon. Walked the watkin path. Lost the path at one point and got really hard going under foot. When visibility got down to virtually zero and we'd put on all our warm clothes and we're still freezing we gave up and headed back down. Unfortunately about 500metres or so below the summit. Alone I'd of cracked on but it was his first attempt and it was hard going.
Might just go up the pyg track with him next time. Still he loved it and came home telling his mum all about it for a week!

Similar thing happened to me although I was on my own and on the Pyg track. The wind and rain got steadily worse the higher I went, the fine, drizzly rain left me absolutely saturated. Asked this couple who were descending how far was I from the summit and they said about 15 minutes. Continued for about another 5 minutes then bottled it. Visibility was about 10 metres max and the blustery wind felt like it could knock me over if caught unawares. Bloody scary I can tell you!

Went up the following week and conditions were perfect. Made the top in 1 hour 45. Was absolutely mobbed though.

Conditions change by the hour up there. 20 mins back down the track and we were back down to T-Shirts! Back to the bottom and we had a wash off in a waterfall to cool off.
First time I've done the watkin path tbf. Didn't realise quite how hard it was gonna be. Felt defeated really. Have got to the top of Snowdon up 4 or 5 routes but failed this way. Will definitely have to go again. My lad is determined to get to the top next time too!

Test cricket zzzzzzzz

Cricket full stop. I even went to the trouble of going to watch a Warwickshire game once just incase it's one of those sports you just don't get unless you're there in person absorbing everything. There's a day in my life I won't get back.
