I've got too many to mention.

To start off being served food on a chopping board or a flipping roof tile in a restaurant.

Closely followed by ever being asked to introduce myself to the person on the left in whatever context.

Bar staff at the Amex serving me my pint with their filthy fingers around the rim of the 'glass'.

People who whistle in public. Their complete lack of understanding of how annoying it is to people around them wherever it is. And before the NSC "have you told them" police turn up, yes, I tell them every time.

And, (although Terry Venables beat me to this one in the programme), people who do inverted commas with their fingers to embellish a statement.

Music in sport i.e. goal music or when a boundary is scored in cricket.

Words cannot describe how shit this is. If I want to listen to music I will go to a concert I don't want to hear a load of turgid pop music when I'm attending a sporting event.

Cricket has seemed to embrace it within 20/20 and 50 over cricket and it really puts me off going. Even some Boxing events have music between rounds, why?
The day the Albion use goal music is the day I stop going.

Surely one of the best aspects of attending a live sporting event is the reaction and noise of a crowd, by taking this out of the equation with music it takes away so much from the event.

Hotels. I hate hotels.

If it's a cheap hotel it's the depression of sleeping in the same room as a kettle and the implied mistrust of a hair dryer being chained to the wall.

If it's more luxurious, it's the fear of never being able to make a cup of tea how I like it and never being able to make my own breakfast or a sandwich.

Slow walkers. Hate them. Add chart music in there too as well as muppets who walk round in baseball caps or 'snapbacks' as they like to call them.

I have grown to effing hate hotels over the past 18 months of living in one for 2 nights a week most weeks. The worst are the sort that have weddings at weekends and conferences during the week.

Others would be 'baby on board' stickers for cars, and young kids in pubs.
