During my time here in London I have taken note of a number of things that annoy the hell out of me. Unfortunately these may not be of any interest to you but as the sole writer / editor of this site I take it upon myself to air out my grievances.
1. Cyclists on their high horse. Yes you are the greatest because you ride a bike and are saving the planet but stop swapping between a car / pedestrian when it suits you. Ringing your bell whilst illegally riding on a footpath or across a pedestrian walkway that is green for pedestrians will not make me get out of your way – in fact I will go out of my way to inconvenience your misjudgement on this matter by slowing you down to the point that you have to remove your locked in feet from the pedals to prevent you falling over.
2. If your child is old enough to go to school then they do not need to be transported there in a pram or stroller. This is not only and inconvenience when you push the empty stroller along with the child walking next to you taking up most of the footpath but it also seems stupid when you are taking public transport (ie the bus) and leave an empty pram in the standing area.
3. Multi-bags as carry on. If you do not want to put your bags into the hold then make sure only one goes into the locker above. If I cannot find a space for my small back pack shared between 2 persons, then too many chumps are multi-bagging. Don’t expect me to store this below my feet for your selfishness. This goes for coats up there too – expect them to be squashed into the back of the locker because you don’t want to hang it on the hook on the seat in front of you.
4. Service charges included into the bill. I don’t have to pay this so why do you put it on there? Why do you offer such substandard service when this is the case? Why do you become embarrassed when I ask you to reissue the bill without this?
