    From experience I find with the overtaking lane it’s usually because idiots in slow cars try and overtake while only doing like 60 and then barely making it back into the left lane instead of just staying in the left lane. Usually you get the fannies that just bunch up and tailgate the queues as if it’s going to go faster.

    The average driver really doesn’t have any courtesy or clue when it comes to motorway driving. It’s like when you are doing 70 in the left lane and you see that dummy in the overtaking lane also doing 70 and making no progress, instead of pulling back into the left lane like any sane person would.

    Any company with '4U' in their name.

    TV channels that show classic films but stop them halfway through for 'Movie News' or some *.

    Misuse of words like 'literally' and 'chronic'.

    When you're drying, she's washing and no attempt whatsoever is made to rinse the suds off the dishes.

    Pulling your shoelace only for it to go into a knot.

    Accidentally seeing Rylan Clark's face.

    Driving along and seeing an amazing pair of legs just as you really have to concentrate on the road.

    Magic acts. Yes, that's his signature on the card you've just pulled out of that girl's * but it's obviously a trick, just show me how it's done.

    The likes of Channel 4 showing the first episode of a new show then telling you the rest is only online. Feckers.

    It's so easy to get irritated these days...

    How interesting. Last summer in Oz I noticed exactly the same thing - heaps more spiders than usual but you don't want to pick a fight with ours.

    Aye they are * me right off this year. I try really hard not to kill them cause I've always thought it wrong to kill things for no reason really and also cause its apparantly bad luck to kill a spider. But this year they are driving me daft.

    Every day theres another spider that I have to deal with and they are not just stupid wee ones either. They are massive and they've got brainier aswell. They always go to the corner of the room where the wall joins the ceiling, almost as if they know that you are going to struggle to get them up there. Then when you do finally get close to them they fall off the wall and then could be anywhere in the room and my daughter screams and wont go to bed if she knows theres a spider somewhere in her room.

    Ive asked them to leave the house. They wont go. I try to evict them with the pint glass and they fall off the wall and wont go. So the only real way to combat them is my big heavy working boots and smash the * with it. I dont like to do it but Im running out of options here

    At least your spiders are harmless though. Ours used to kill people quite regularly until an antivenene was discovered in 1981.

    I was terrified of funnelwebs until the antivene was developed - fear disappeared completely on that joyous day.

    Knowing my luck I'll get bitten by one on a desert island.

    I’ve heard that peppermint or spearmint oil is something they detest so you could always try spraying the possible entry points where they are getting in. A diffuser might work with the oils to create an atmosphere they won’t like.

    Cheers laptop, having considered it, here's what I'll do, in 14 days, when it * expires .. I'll change it.

    Until then, a daily countdown won't be necessary - go * yourself.

    The utter stupidity of people that answer some of these bizarre Facebook pages.

    e.g. - 'No animal begins and ends with the same letter - prove me wrong!'

    Cue some * you knew in school's thick as * auntie writing 'Tiberian Dingbat'

    I feel like posting 'name a fruit that begins with 'b' and ends in 'anana', to see how many dipshits respond.
