Knighthoods. They hand them out to any Tom, Dick & Harry these days, I wonder when I'm going to get mine? You'd need to make a substantial donation to the Tory Party. I have to say, given the rather disrespectful tenor of some of your posts vis Johnson and Co, I'm going to stick my neck out and say, you've sh*t it, you're not going to get one.

Decorating. I've had a few jobs done on the house recently including rising damp sorted, both bathrooms replaced, a couple of leaks fixed, some ceilings repaired (associated with aforementioned leaks) and await the guttering to be completed and have had considerable recent experience of the Great British tradesman all of whom have, and without exception been reliably unreliable (believe me, I'm being charitable). I decided therefore that rather than entrust the job to another tradesman I'd decorate the living room myself. Big. Mistake. The spirit is willing, the body however, is not. I can hardly think above the sound of the whingeing from my dodgy shoulder, my knees have withdrawn all co-operation and my back is killing me! Next time I might just have to bite the bullet and get a decorator in.

And while I'm in the mood, you can add the Co-operative Bank to the list. I've been a customer of theirs for 30+ years and they've now decided that almost every online transaction I wish to make above £10 is potentially fraudulent and are therefore declining to make a payment. This despite the fact that they waved through payment of several thousand pounds in payment for the bathrooms without question. Needless to say, I'll not be a customer for much longer.

People who send me voice messages on WhatsApp. You might think it's easier for you, but it's a f***ing p**s boil for me and irritates me beyond belief. I don't know about you, but I don't walk around with my earbuds in 24/7, so I can't listen to your messages when I'm in work or out and about. When I AM able to listen, I absolutely f***ing hate listening to the pauses while you're then thinking of what to say next, the "I'm just trying to think if I've left anything out" followed by another pause makes my f***ing teeth itch. In other words, use your fingers you bone idle tw##s, then I can read your messages quickly and ignore them a whole lot f***ing quicker!

The British transport network. We have a motorway system that was clearly not designed for the volumes of traffic it has to cope with today but we have been governed by a series of free market zealots from varying extremes of the political right who have, over the last 40+ years completely abandoned any pretence of managing a national system of regular, modern and affordable public transport in favour of flogging it to the highest bidder, frequently foreign owned who use the profits they make from screwing the travelling public to subsidise travel in their own country's.
Service stations are frequently tatty and expensive, flogging fuel at eye watering prices, even by contemporary standards. The carriageways themselves are pot-holed, in places sinking and a danger to use with mile upon mile of speed restricted sections where nobody is actually doing a tap.
The alternative however, is no alternative at all. To travel to Eastleigh by rail from Carlisle yesterday would have cost £170 return and taken longer than the journey took by car! Next time that f***ing gobshite Sunak prattles on about the Tories being the party of low taxation like the mindless right-wing drone that he is remember, that its taxation that leads to public spending that leads to the kind of good quality service provision that one might expect to find in one of the wealthiest country's in the world. It's not rocket science ffs!

Bank Holidays. Having worked all but a handful of them since I joined my current employer, they're just something that happens to other people. When it's nice weather around here every f***er wants a BBQ/outdoor piss up, so getting to sleep is nigh on impossible. We have to use our annual holidays if we want them off, but that's not always possible as there's usually a bottleneck of people putting holidays in for them, which more often than not results in drawing a name from the hat which I've rarely won - so I absolutely f***ing hate them! For all you lucky bleeders out there looking forward to your extended weekends - I hope it f***ing pisses down!

In my experience nothing puts you through the highs and lows that football does and that includes losing friends and family and tomorrow there'll be no in-betweens, it will be one or the other but, I'm a County (insert team of choice here) supporter and therefore the eternal optimist..........

Have we done TIKTOK?
It's still getting another mention if we have. This is another piece of social media shite that I'd love to see the back of, with it's childish 'filters' and p**s-boiling fake laughter background tracks.
To anyone out there with TIKTOK that has my number, PLEASE scroll PAST my name when sharing anything from this utter shitefest.
