The odd delay at junctions from the dsg, that and the noises it makes ( it has had a new mechatronics before anyone asks!)

I've never experienced any sort of delay at junctions. It's always in the right gear.

The increasing tend for people to pre-fix something they are saying with "So". Like......"So, this product is about, etc", and they keep doing it, every sentence......

And those being interviewed, who keep saying"you know"....well we don't actually - that's why you're being interviewed on this radio show........

The "of's", as mentioned by a few, as in would of, instead of would have

And a newish one - "Been as".....as in "being as"

Check - out assistants who carry on talking to their colleagues, while you're being served

People who leave you a telephone message and rattle their number off so quick, that you have to play it back 3 times to get the number.

Another one.....you've asked someone for some info, and they agree to call you back, which they do, but instead of telling you what you want to know in the message, they just say can you call me back.....

Enough for now! Been amusing reading through though

Property solicitors taking their sweet arse time to get confirmation from the vender of a house we are buying of when the kitchen was extended. Pointed out it is contained within the home buyer survey yet they have to get the seller to confirm even though it was built before they bought it!

Sellers who get shirty when you want to exchange contracts and complete as they "just dont have the time" right now. Come on. You're selling a house, you know what comes next!!!!!!!!!

When driving on an open road following someone 10-15 mph under the speed limit & when you get to an open stretch you go to overtake them and they speed up. The fools!

Oh & grown adults that call tomato sauce red sauce. What are you 5? Grow up!

Right the phone may need the bin or as you're in 3g and not 4G that could also be the route of your connection?.
