People who put their feet up on seats on public transport Spitting Mobile phone users who like you to hear their private conversations I've only just seen this thread and am in a hurry to go out. There are zillions more which I will add later. Jean (whose so grumpy she's forgotten how to smile lol).

Cats and dogs that think my garden is a toilet Parents who do not control their children in pubs/supermarkets/anywhere near me. Shouting out their names from time to time does not constitute discipline. People with passes who stop the bus I'm on even though it's too early to use the passes. Thus delaying my arrival by 10 minutes. Apostrophes in the wrong place. Old people who think that being old gives them a perfect right to push in in bus queues. People who take more than 6 items through the express checkouts, particularly if they then pay by plastic. Parents who send ill children to school because they have to work, thus making the rest of the class (and the teacher) ill as well. Parking on pavements which means that Mums with buggies have to go into the road to pass. Those electric scooter things that shopping centres rent out which take your legs out from under you when being driven at high speed through the precinct. Those pullalong shopping bag things that ladder your stockings and injure your ankles when being hauled around by inconsiderate people, who often don't even apologise, let alone offfer to pay for the damage they've caused. Bull bars on cars. Don't the owners know that they are more likely to kill whoever they hit with them on than without? Or do they just not care? Parents who block roads at the beginning and end of school by parking as close as they can, thus endangering other children. Gwynne

People who drive their little darlings to school when they only live 10 minutes away.. 4 X 4's anywhere but particularly in London. Jean x

People who condemn 4 wheel car drivers without knowing the reason they drive them.If you have a touring caravan a 4 wheel drive car is essential,wet grass is lethal for towing on,you wouldnt believe how many people we have rescued that have been stuck with their wheels spinning (in an ordinary car) so please have a little consideration for other peoples needs.I dont mean to be nasty about this but it does get up my nose a bit,sorry whinge over.

Looking at our PM on TV, smirking and forever saying he'll stay as long as his party wants him. Can't stand his lies, hypocrisy and self satisfaction (Talking about the Oz PM, not yours) Beverley from Perth

Ours is just as bad Bev! LOL

People who moan about how cold winter is and then when summer comes and we have the occasional hot day they moan about the heat !! Stella

Right here goes then; children running around libraries making a lot of noise spitting chewing gum people talking loud on their mobiles, I really don't want to know anything about your personal life people that block supermarket aisles while they have a good chinwag self-righteousness (sp?) noisy eaters dirty clothes left lying around hubby not putting the toilet seat down car owners who insist on parking their cars on the pavement and blocking access for pedestrians litter parents who shout and swear at their children teenagers smoking at the supermarket asking for cash back and being told 'Sorry, I haven't got enough cash in the till' Grrrrr, why offer the damn service then!!!! Thanks Jim, I feel much better. x

Young mothers who insist on walking two abreast down the pavement, both with large buggies and expect you to jump out of the way or have your foot run over. People who don't say thank you when you hold a door open People who let a door slam shut in your face. people who deposit chewing gum on the pavement (or anywhere else for that matter) People who spit. People who are intolerant of elderly or disabled people. Ann Glos

Haughty receptionists (especially doctors') who revel in the 'power' they think they have over you when making an appointment........They seem to expect recognition/praise for 'fitting you in' when in fact their just doing the job that their paid to do!!!

I can't stand intolerant or domineering people who think that others should always do things their way 'cos it's the only way. I can't stand people who criticize others for doing (or not doing) something without knowing the underyling circumstances. I don't like people who spout out advice before you've asked them for it. I always find it strange that some people criticize others for something which they often do themselves! How can they not see it? I'm all for women's lib, but I hate those extremists who are always ready to show men they have just met that they are not standing for any nonsense even before they get to know what kind of a man they have in front of them! (Hope that makes sense). I'll maybe be back - once I've had another think .....

Yes, Anne in Gloucester! It also drives me MAD when I hold a door open and no-one says thanks, or let it swing in your face. I've often thought to myself, 'Maybe I'm invisible!'

Plumbers who leave three layers of dust over everything!!
