    Restaurants that say on the menu a food is 'very spicy' and 9 times out of 10 it just isn't.

    I like spicy food and choose to order it and I'll be able to tell if it's 'very spicy' or not so don't lie to me.

    This is one of mine too, I have been very disappointed on more than one occasion recently with menus denoting the 1,2,3 chilli symbol and finding what I think is going to be very hot and spicy a let down. Having said that I asked for a ramped up Chilli Garlic Chicken on Saturday night and boy did they ramp it up.........superb.

    I went to a curry night in the pub in Kirkliston once, forget its name, and asked for a curry to be really really hot if possible. When I got the tbi g it was boiling hot but not spicy in the slightest. The chef woman spole to.us after and asked how it was and I said it was nice but I like them hotter, to which she said oh I thought you meant boiling hot haha

    Folk who ignore or don't see white road markings.
    Worst and most dangerous of all, the morons who blatently cut corners at speed on blind bends on narrow roads. I get so paranoid about them and tend to slow down in anticipation, that I'm sure I frustrate drivers behind me. Too bad as my life has regularly been saved by pre-empting these killers.

    Folk who cut lane lines at T junctions just when you're about ten yards from the junction.

    The number of bus stops on each route. Public transport is fantastic in Edinburgh but is there really a need for a bus stop every 50 meters it seems on route.

    Why can't people just make a cup of coffee anymore? in the work I see folk standing at the sink with chemistry sets spending ages trying to make the perfect cup. Tossers IMO.

    Are you sure it's coffee?
    There is no such thing as too much yarn, just not enough time.

    Just as bad are those that don't know how to use them. More and more people indicating right at a roundabout when going straight on.

    On the other hand, folk who don't use lights in bad light conditions are menaces. I drove from Peebles into Edinburgh yesterday. There was a real pea souper and every car had dipped headlights and most had foglights on. The clown, ten yards behind me all the way, refused to use any lights at all.

    Current pet peeve is the F1speeds round roundabouts. Those on the roundabout doing their best to prevent anyone joining. Here are some very big roundabouts in the City and giving way safely to the right not always necessary. Roundabouts were intended to make traffic flow better...

    The roundabout at the gyle going into Edinburgh Park give me the rage almost dailey. people coming from the right and block the lane for anyone getting out when they clearly dont have anywhere to go

    Ditters on the road.

    Roadworks with traffic lights for weeks because of one little hole that needs filled and there's no workmen on site or in sight.
    If you can't complete the work, temporarily fill the bleeding hole in rather than cause grief to road users.

    Adverts with 'cute' little kids, puppies or kittens.
