People calling Inverness Caledonian Thistle "Inverness Caley" or "Caley".

ICT are an amalgamation of two teams: Inverness Thistle and Inverness Caledonian.

Calling the present mob "Caley" is wrong as it's a different team, it's disrespectful to the Thistle element and it does my bloody box in.

Imagine we joined up with Hearts to form Heart of Hibernian and everyone just referred to them as Hearts.

Thought they were previously

Caledonian FC
Inverness Thistle

and then became ICT

Correct, they then played as simply Caledonian Thistle for 2 years before Inverness council requested they add the city name.

Indeed.

Eating a Greggs steak bake is a bit like climbing Everest, there's a very narrow window when conditions are just right, miss it and you are looking at disaster.

My daily ritual used to be going into Greggs and asking the wummin "what's hot?" She used to have to stick a glove on and go round testing what was warmest, and that's what I'd buy. i'm pretty sure she threw a party when I moved jobs to another town :

Tram ticket machines,there simply aren't enough of them. One person takes too long and you have missed the tram.

Wouldn't matter one jot to me. Football would be dead to me.

Yeah ok I've heard enough. bad example

Imagine hearts and ourselves moved into a super new, shared stadium (and everybody was cool with it) and it was called the heart of Hibernian stadium. I would be a bit pissed if people gradually started referring to it as the hearts stadium over time.

Neither senario is relevant. In both cases it would be Edinburgh United and the stadium would be the RBS arena or some nonsense (or Easter road since ours is fit for purpose).

ICT get called ICT, Inverness, Cally and other variations. The whole merger left bad blood up there. I don't think anyone is that bothered by the name issue now, anyone who is or was probably doesn't go.

Folk that park on either side of the street and leave the minimum amount of room for your car to squeeze between, if it breathes in.

[Hibrandenburg]

Thick people who are completely devoid of any cognitive process and don't realise it.

Motorcyclists that weave in and out of traffic, or who (particularly when the roads merge heading northbound to the Forth Road Bridge) drive down the chevrons that force the lane merge. I'm amazed that more motorcyclists aren't knocked off their bikes at that part of the road, especially as a lot of them not only ignore road markings but are also incapable of using an indicator correctly.

I nearly wiped one guy out southbound onto the bridge the other day, I was in the overtaking lane passing a car and could see the motorbike in my mirror, once I was clear of the car I indicated left to move back in and let him pass (he wasn't bothered about the 40mph average speed limit either), except as I'm about to start to move back in having just checked my mirror, I checked again and couldn't see him - the daft prick was undertaking - no indicator that he was moving, ignores my indicator to show I'm letting him pass, he cut up the car I'd just passed...

I'm sure there are proportionately more bad motorcyclists than car drivers.

Clothes horses. Do woman get some secret sorcery training on how they effing work?

[Jim44]

Sc* mbags who can't vacate a paking space without leaving expensive scratches on your wing and bumper and driving off without acknowledging it. I really hope they don't go on to have a really expensive one car prang in the near future.

Golfers that take 25 mins per hole for 17 and then let you play through on the 18th. Gřrrrrrrrrrrr.

Condensation on the outside of a pint.
I look like I have slavered all over myself as it always drips onto my t shirt.

Really bloody annoys me.

Sachets of sauce in restaurants.
Firstly , if you are going to provide sauce in a restaurant, serve it in a small dish FFS.

Secondly , they are never big enough.
I've just had to use 5 and I could still do with some more .

Finding a note from the postie saying that I was out when they called so my parcel is in my wheelie bin.

People who pronounce the final 'g' of a word as a 'k' e.g. Pronounce everything as everythink. Why?

They do have an excuse tho'. They have poor grammar and just don't and never have known that it should be 'have'. They probably think that 'of' is the correct form as phonetically it sounds almost correct.

People who because they think a certain law, rule or regulation is daft or unnecessary they can ignore or disobey it and then feel hard done to when they get pulled up for it.

I've never agreed with it and what happens if everyone on the flight has booked speedy boarding

It always amazes me how people are in a rush to sit in a chair that they'll be plonked in for several hours.
Unless you have loads of hand luggage, it's far better to be last on the plane, IMO.

This, and why does everyone stand up like the plane's on fire after landing? You ain't going anywhere until the doors open.
