    Mine only asked me that question once. I answered NO of course.

    It was the: "not in comparison to a hippopotamus" that she hit me for! It took a month for the bruise to heal.

    People who pull out on you and then drive at 20mph - should be pulled over and executed on the spot.

    Just tiny bit too harsh for me.

    Perhaps confiscate their licence for life and a public flogging.

    "Lets push the envelope on this one" and "Run this up the flagpole and see which way the wind blows it".

    Are these people mad?

    People that can't follow the arrows painted on the road and then look surprised to find you in the space they are about to drive into (having followed the arrows) or blatantly cut you up.

    If there are 2 arrows going straight on and you're in the right hand of those lanes - stay in the *&^*(&^*ing right hand lane...

    And another for Robster's list

    "Let's touch base on that later"

    To which I reply "No, we can have a chat about it though"

    Re: Pet Hates (Why do)

    for me it's using words for which they don't mean or don't exist...

    i.e. anyways, bad = good, etc

    oh and sayings too...

    "you know what i mean..."

    "and so forth"

    people who call you mate and you don't know them.

    People who invade my space at the hole in the wall or supermarket checkout by standing right on your shoulder. I'm over 15 stones and accidentally take a step back and step on their toes " Oops, I am sorry" Am I heck as like

    I think all cars should be armed two heat seeking missles and when they are spent, youve had your lot, so you could use one for ones that pull out and the ones that tail gate.

    Pet hates people who talk absolute cobs on the phone and big themselves up - lets be fair we know your checking the time.

    Re: Pet Hates (Why do)

    Heat seekers, superb idea, I had an MD who hired a car in Germany, on the return to the airport he was carved up by a turkish taxi driver (lots of them in Germany) the usual sign language and obscenities were traded, when we were closer to the airport the taxi indicated to turn right, our MD had a hot flush and accelerated straight into the back of him ! The encounter was a bit scary as the language barrier etc, even funnier was the explanation to Hertz as to why the car was trashed, all he lost was his deposit and accident waiver.

    Now I think that is nearly as good as an exocet missile on each wing

    I wash my windscreen when I get a tailgater. They drop back to clean their screen and when they close in again I do it again.
    Driving through the loose crap in the hatched areas also gets rid of them too.

    Walking into a quaint Highland pub and being greeted by an extra from the Queen Vic.
    "Wotcha Mate. Wots yo having?"

    I mention this in a non-racist way. My other halfs from Hertfordshire and it gets on her goat as well!!
