Old keys. My wife refuses to throw out old keys even if the item to be locked is long gone.

Britains most historic towns on Channel 4, from the blurb:
The towns featured in the series are:
Chester – Britain’s Most Roman Town
York – Britain’s Most Viking Town
Winchester – Britain’s Most Norman Town
Norwich – Britain’s Most Tudor Town
Cheltenham – Britain’s Most Regency Town
Belfast – Britain’s Most Victorian Town
Bit of a theme there. Obviously Scotland and Wales don't qualify.PM Awards General Poster of The Year 2015, 2016, 2017. Probably robbed in other years

Glasgow could and should rival Belfast for the Victorian element but Belfast probably feels it gets overlooked most of the time because of the prominence of Alexander Thomson and the like.
The Regency category is probably a bit of a subset of Georgian, in which case Edinburgh and its New Town should walk it. Nevertheless, Cheltenham is undeniably impressive.
I wondered about the choice of 'town' rather than 'city' but some of the names are definitely cities.
Another example of 'Most Victorian' would be Paisley. I think it has the secondmost-densest prevalence of listed buildings in Scotland, after Edinburgh, almost all from the Victorian period. It would be perhaps a more interesting subject matter than a Glasgow or a Belfast.There's only one thing better than a Hibs calendar and that's two Hibs calendars

Grown men that are too lazy and inconsiderate to lift the toilet seat before taking a pish at work!!!!
Fair enough if you’re accurate enough not to pish all over a seat that someone else is going to eventually have to sit on.
****s
And yes I’m typing this from the toilet.

There's a women in my work who leaves dirty dishes all over the place, spills milk and doesn't wipe it up, forces mountains of paper onto a recycling bin close to overflowing, she left a bowl with food in it in her drawer for the weekend because she couldn't be ersed going downstairs and washing it then got all nippy when she was pulled up for it. Yet I've been to her house a couple of times and it's absolutely spotless; she's just a lazy cow when she knows other people will clean up after her.PM Awards General Poster of The Year 2015, 2016, 2017.

Strong wind when you are cycling and it doesn't matter what direction you go it's a head wind, its like getting on a bike transports you into some sort of Bermuda triangle.

People who get competitive for no reason.
When you are out walking and people practically chase you up a mountain just to pass you, when you are running and someone sprints past you only for you to pass them again a mile up the road because they are knackered or when you pull out to overtake someone when driving and as soon as they see you they start to speed up.

Seriously, my current pet peeve is when I go to press "Sport" on the BBC website, a nanosecond before I click on it, it suddenly jumps to the right and I end up clicking the 'News' or something else.Last edited by snooky; 30-04-2018 at 09:18 PM.

When a loved one shouts at you through the house even though they know you won't be able to hear what they're saying.
I've taken to ignoring it - as a sort of training exercise.

And another thing.
I don't know if any of you live in central Scotland where these are prominent, but being woken up by an orange walk does my ****ing head in.
Not only do they stand for everything that's wrong in 21st century Scotland (open oppression of others religions, a show of force by the protestant sects of society, union jacks on show) but they are obnoxiously noisy and why the **** are they on at 6/6:30 in the morning? Is it because they don't want to miss an early rangers kick off? Or have they got puppies to execute in the afternoon?
Pricks.
