It's that time of year again.Christmas is coming and my neighbours start doing their online christmas shopping and are never home to collect it so we end up taking it in!!!And it drives me mad! Last year they had even put our address on some of the stuff! and although the delivery people put a card through their door to say where it is they never come and pick it up- they wait for us to take it round! This so petty i know but it drives me insane!!!!!!!!!!!!
We're not even especially friendly with them- just to say hello to.And the delivery guys always turn up when i'm to my ears in dirty nappy or something!!!
anyone else got any thing petty to vent?

I see, I didn't need the disabled scapes yeaterday as Ds and Dd1 were at home with DH, but like I told the man on the desk 'its not the point, they shouldn't park there'

people who block the path when you are pushing a pram and can't get past them, and then ignore you when you say excuse me, so you have to say it about 4 times and when you increase volume turn around and tut at you.

no I don't, I love the Asda car park, when you pull into a disabled bay, a machine says 'do you really need this space??' lol

alexsmum · 28/11/2005 00:32

and do you know what, i don't think the disabled parking space think is petty either.

I do the same (check for badges at disabled spaces).
that's another pet hate of mine alexsmum. or I'll hold a door open for someone and not get a thankyou. happens to me loads.
once in berlin a bloke (on a not v crowded street at all) completely bashed into me - it really hurt and he couldn't have been unaware he'd done it (I'm not made of air) - but off he went withoit so much as a look, never mind a sorry.
grrrr. (said I was in a foul mood )
