Granny Danger Posted July 29 Share Posted July 29 People who lean on/over their trollies in supermarkets, usually the type that somehow manage to be as slow as f**k, take up a whole aisle and are oblivious to requests to move and who want to turn a simple shopping trip into a multi-hour adventure. ASDA is the worst for that. People sitting at traffic lights and who are unprepared for the lights turning to green. Bad enough at any time, worse during the busy times. I’ve only been back here two full days and am already pissed off at both these things. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's like travelling by magic carpet over there after a lifetime driving on UK roads. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They tend to get off at Tain and get a lift rather than the senic route round the top of Kyle of Sutherland! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barely see roadworks where we live. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MEADOWXI Posted August 1 Share Posted August 1 The Olympic team being called Team GB Should be Team UK unless we are excluding Northern Ireland, the debate on whether that a good idea or not is something else. They in now so it should be called Team UK 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They in now so it should be called Team UK If the powers that be aren't worried about accuracy, presumably there'd be no problem if the team were named "Scotland" or "Wales". A bit like the England and Wales cricket team being called "England", the badge being that well-known Welsh image of 3 lions and of course carrying the initials "ECB". I suspect that the blazerati would spill their G&TS if folk started calling the team "Wales". 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They in now so it should be called Team UK Their reasoning is they know it’s wrong, but although the Team UK would be more correct it would still miss off all the crown dependencies. Maybe team UKCD would be a catch all? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Miguel Sanchez Posted August 2 Share Posted August 2 I don't know that I've ever heard a sea shanty. I don't think I've ever seen someone say something good about them, so I think that's a good thing. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
