You mean any one over 5' 4"****in tall lanky bastards (today with a big afro) who insist on standing in front of me at gigs
Were you stood next to me?
People constantly yapping during the show.
People watching the gig through their phones - take a couple of photos fine, but stood for an hour with the phone up in the air - aaaarrrghh
Ticket touts and ticket re-sell websites - robbing bastards.
Huge queues at the bar, with only two ****ing dim-wit barstaff working.
Hey, my sister used to work behind the bar at QPR. (Although she is a bit of a dim-wit)Were you stood next to me?

People at busy tube stations who walk up to the entrance or exit, then go to a pocket, bag then their other pocket, and start looking for their friggin oyster, then the coat pocket find it, look at me, raise there eyes as if to say oh silly me am I holding you and the world behind you up, ain't I silly. Yes you **** you are.
Can you guess what happened to me this evening on my way home.

No but the count infront of me at the exit nearly did
People getting on to crowded tube trains that don't let alighting passengers off first. FFS! How dense can you be? People who barge past you to get onto said tube train, when there will be another less-crowded train along in less than 2 minutes. ****s. Tube travel in general. I'd rather (and do) drive into London on the odd occasions I have to be there. Much better than mixing with the great unwashed. £11.50 congestion charge and £4.50 to park (if you know where).
Not nice to call all the people on here who live or lived in London "The Great Unwashed".
I speak from years of poor experience! I must add that all Rs fans are fragrant and spotless!

Canada province urges shopkeepers to stop saying 'Bonjour-Hi'
Many in Quebec see their French identity as being under threat. It is the only Canadian province where French is the sole official language.
However, there are also sizeable Anglophone communities within Quebec, especially in the cosmopolitan hub of Montreal.
The place that banned the term grilled cheese and cocktail
The Office quebecois de la langue francaise (OQLF) oversees the preservation of the French language in the province - sometimes at the expense of commonly used words.
In 2013, an Italian restaurant was forced to remove "pasta" from its menu because it is not a French word.
In 2016, a restaurant called La Mama Grilled Cheese in Quebec City received a letter from the language agency chastising them for their Anglicism.
This year, the language watchdog quietly loosened some of its restrictions, allowing words like "grilled cheese", "cocktail" and "drag queen" back into the lexicon.

The unofficial greeting in the bilingual Canadian city of Montreal has long been a friendly "Bonjour, Hi!"
But that standard is no more since a motion mandating store clerks to greet customers only in French was passed in Quebec's provincial legislature.
The move reaffirms French as the primary language in the province, where use of English can be controversial.
The motion - which is not a law - was passed unanimously, but the province's premier called the debate "ridiculous".
Introduced by the fiercely Francophile Parti Quebecois, the motion "invites all businesses and workers who enter into contact with local and international clients to welcome them warmly with the word 'bonjour'".
"It's about being original and being ourselves, and being ourselves is a major Francophone city with an Anglophone community," said PQ house leader Pascal Bérubé.
Rebelling against Quebec's 'language police'
"First thing you have to say, I think, is 'bonjour.' It's about respect, it's easy to understand."
Premier Philippe Couillard, a Liberal, objected to the original wording of the motion, which called the inclusion of "Hi" in greetings "an irritant". He accused the PQ of trying to fan the flames of language war and stoke division in the province.
He said the whole debate was "ridiculous", but agreed to vote in favour of the motion once the word "irritant" was removed.
