Look, you line up all the large size plates, using the space nice and efficiently with the help of the racks desighed by those clever German engineers specifically to cope with large size plates, and some plonker sticks an egg cup or a saucepan or two saucers the other way round in the next few slots - drives me nuts.

Also when you get to the end of a race, push the "timer stop" button, wander around, have a drink of water, put a nice warm top on, have a bit of a chat and notice - the ruddy numbers are still moving because you didn't stop it properly.

Velociraptor Mar 2011 11:17am, 22 Mar 2011 15,353 posts	Quote Pin Velociraptor People demanding Calpol on prescription, I can cope with. People demanding Calopl AND Nurofen on prescription week after week, AND insisting that each of their eight children has their own supply prescribed despite the fact that they can't muster up a hint of a fever between the lot of 'em. And not feeling able, due to the culture of political correctness, to ask whether they're selling it locally, exporting it to relatives in countries where you can't get free medicine, or giving the kids a spoonful as a treat for good behaviour.
