CPFC BBS - Things that annoy you

Coughlans used to have a mobile van under the railway bridge near Selhurst station and sold the best sausage rolls and pasties
A good baker though
We have a Hoxton bakery in Lymington next door to Greggs - only ever been into Greggs
Says it all

But you have "brockenhurst/Dubai (note the small "b") as your location. How much more aspirational" do you want to appear? Course you've been into the poncey bakery.

Says it all.

(Sorry - a bit grumpy tonight)

This previous weekends grumble: Tourists who insist on getting on London Buses with all their luggage before anyone else and then want the driver to plan out their entire days itinery peeing off the large queue behind them (happens a lot at Heathrow).

Same with the lot that come through the last gates at the airport and are “met” blocking up the exit with lots of squeals ohhh ahhhs and hugs.

Alarms I set my it goes off I stop it and get up, simple. Everyone else in my house sets the alarm for half an hour before they want to get up it goes off they snooze it once twice three time.
Meanwhile it wakes me up if I have to get up or not.

My good self once had a gardener called "Gary", and one used to refer to him as "Gary the grass".He didn't like this and would rather be referred to as "Lawno".

If only big troll Charlie had done some gardening in his yoof, instead of Gary or Lawno, he may just about avoided some painful arthritis and maybe got some back problems

Wireless headphones. They are rubbish. The sound quality is awful, they are more expensive, you need to charge them and you have to faff around connecting the bluetooth whereas with wired headphones you just stick the wire in. Biggest waste of money going.

The Twat who wore the shirt with the number 97 and the name Not Enough to the cup final. What a senseless scroat.

the UK's approach to weights and measures is such a confused mess.
It's a measure (;)) of how gammony the country actually is (errr yes you silly old sausage, 52% - Ed).

BBC pundits saying the Casemiro challenge should've been a yellow, when it was clearly a potential ankle breaker that should've been a red.

Its seems we have reached critical mass. No one says ‘may / can I have’ when asking for something in a restaurant / pub / cafe / shop anymore, it’s all ‘can I get’

Always makes me cringe when I hear it. Been a 15 year process. Similar dickheads will say ‘I rocked up’ rather than ‘I arrived / turned up’ think they assume it all sounds cool rather than egotistical.

People, and I have even heard it on the BBC, who say 'the proof is in the pudding'.

It makes zero sense, the proof of the pudding is in the eating
