Can't believe that Wine O'Clock annoys 17% of those polled........... They need to get a drink........
 
I’m starting to get annoyed at the 24-hour news channels calling everything ‘breaking news’ when most of the stuff is trivial nonsense. Earlier ‘breaking news’ was that Rishi had left Downing Street and was heading to the Commons for PMQs. Surely, ‘breaking news’ should be the reserve of far more important/interesting things?

The trivial stuff should just be entitled "breaking wind"
 
I know this isn’t an irritating phrase but…

I’ve just changed jobs, which means more regular journeys into London again after a break of 4-5 years, and there’s been a noticeable increase in the number of ****s meandering blindly around with their noses in their phones and expecting others to move out of the way for them.

Frankly, it isn’t so much the oncoming **** who are the main nuisance but the ones you catch up that can’t walk in a straight line.

It’s no wonder there’s been an increase in the number of phone snatches here in recent times with all that hardware in plain sight and owners oblivious to their surroundings.

Get one of them in your crosshairs, blindly walking towards you, and then stand still. Take great pleasure in their embarrassed apologies as they spill your mocha latte with oatmilk all over themselves, then walk away with a wry smirk on your face knowing you've done your good deed for the day.
