Pet Hates

[bigbaddave]

My Wife's attempt at cooking something nice for tea

Slow punctures due to screws/nails in tyres after leaving a site strewn with crap.
Had 3 in a week not long ago.

 

[dan86]

only ever had 2 punctures and 1 blowout in my life. 1st puncture didn't happen until I'd been driving for more than 5 years!

Its the right size at 22, they just haven't bothered to clip it together, like they didn't with all the others. I did up the one on the left myself, as such things irritate me.

plumbers...there not called rough for nowt

Not viable really. Regular customers, factory site and usually OK. Probably from stores/delivery area - odd damaged pallets and such. Got small repairs done for next to nowt. Just a pain in the ---.

another pet hate: cables in DB bunched and held with cable ties. just the same as cramming too many wires into trunking, build up of heat etc.
i always snip them off.

+1 for plumbers!!! :45:

Here's one from today: on a kitchen re-wire me leaving all the light cables in the multi-gang switch so I can disconnect them in order and note down what does what, but no, the builder has hacked them all off (not that he needed to anyway) so now I have about 10 1mm t+e's which all look the same and no clue as to which one does what. What a pain in the cod-piece...

wait till he screeds the floor, then walk on it.

Its a wooden floor, so I'll have to think of something else. I would leave a dead fish under it, but it already smells like one from a dishwasher that has been leaking into it for years. I might set fire to his van, or it that a bit OTT?

Put some bits of non smelly fish (frozen bits will work) in the heater intake on his van. It will take a short while for them to go off. Make sure you do not smell of the evidence.

1.Twisted Earths,
2. dodgy threads on metal back boxes,
3. that horrible cellophane and foil inside some brands of FP200,
4. cheap soft brass terminal screws on switches/sockets etc.
5. snapping small terminal screwdrivers cos I'm too lazy to get the bigger one out of my toolbox!

anything made in china because I know it will fall apart

Pee in his mortar.

If you are going to the trouble of printing out labels, at least spell them right!!
