Friends (the TV show). Find it so boring and middle of the road. Feel like the only person in the world who can't name "The one where... " with a warm glow inside.

Cohabitation: fast-track to resentment and bad sex.

Camping: cold, wet and hungry around the clock for days on end. Wrestling with tarpaulins and arguing.

Driving: fear and boredom at the same time, what's to like?

Riesling: tastes like sweet bathwater to me.

Noel Fielding: never understood how people can tolerate his face, never mind find him funny.

Food festivals (unfortunately.) Always go in anticipation but it's always the same old tripe being sold for £££s because of the novelty of it all. Always too many stalls selling the same old olives/fudge/chilli sauce etc and your usual "fancy" burgers that are too thick to eat or something "fancy" with pulled pork...
