Right here goes:
People who start sentences with So. Really is my number 1 hate
People who say pacific instead of specific
People hogging the middle lane on motorways
Young mums more interested in their mobile phones than talking to their kids
White lads, in fact any lads, who talk and act like they're from the hood
Nobs on their phones whilst driving
People who dont give any space to cyclists
People on bikes who ride 2 abreast in traffic
People who dont indicate in their cars

That'll do for now.
Pacific?

Never ever heard anyone say that, so that is a completely new one on me.

People who drink and drive. Even if it's 2 or 3, if you know you're having a few, just get a taxi. Nothing will make me lose respect for someone quicker than knowing they drive after a few drinks. Scummy

So, I agree with all of those.
What about the couples I've seen out to dinner where both are checking their mobiles instead of talking to each other.
When I was dating, there were no mobile phones and couples actually looked at each other and talked.
We walk our dog in a park every day and there are loads of owners out walking.

Last week though we saw a woman walk about 5 paces into the park with her dog on a lead and her texting on a mobile phone.

She took the dog off the lead and let it run off and she just stood there on the same spot her mobile phone texting. Never moved an inch from the spot.

The dog ran around for about 40 seconds, came back to the owner and she hooked the dog back up again to its lead and still texting, walked straight back out of the park again.

Never seen anything like it.

How is that walking the dog?

I disagree as a cyclist and a pedestrian. I am not comfortable riding at 20mph on the path and would hate to be a pedestrian when a bikes flying past me on the path at that speed.

20mph on pavement! Bloody hell I only do that going downhill with a tail wind. I think pavement is OK, but you have to respect other users & go steady.

That's the thing though, If i'm out doing a few miles on my road bike then I don't want to pootle at 7 or 8 mph. I only did it the once on the way back to Coventry from Kenilworth and hated riding on the pavement. As soon as I could I got back on the road and had a bust up with a bus driver who thought I should be on the path and not the road.

We have cycle tracks all round the island , no pedestrians no cars

My wife says it drives me mad but I can live with that more than some of the other things she does/says.

People who go in the right hand lane when it's 2 lanes and then drive as slow as possible.

Or they pull out in front of you and then drive slow.

Actually I don't mind the grammatical and spelling mistakes made by the under-educated so much. What gets my goat is people who try to make themselves sound "posh" by misusing reflexive verbs e.g. "Please send it to myself". And equally using long-winded clichés such as "at this present time" instead of "now".

'No offence.'

Why not just say 'I'm aware I'm going to cause you offence, but tough I'm going to do it anyway'?
