egordo46 Posted May 14, 2008 Report Share Posted May 14, 2008 People calling foula foul-la - its fooooola fools!!!!Never heard anyone do it till today. Nearly everyone in today wanted to know about foul-la, took me a while to figure out where the first lot were talking about. Yeah it was yesterday i was working and everyone was saying it - also i was told by an American after i helped her that i looked like i needed the exercise! How rude is that?!

Jonny_Mac Posted May 14, 2008 Report Share Posted May 14, 2008 I hate the middle aged women that work in clothes shops that look down on you whenever you walk in. Like they are so much better? I maybe dress a bit like a tramp cos I'm not exactly vain.But these women have no right to try and make me feel like i shouldn't be there, Especially when the high point of their career is serving at a shop counter!!! rant over, goodbye Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

khitajrah Posted May 16, 2008 Report Share Posted May 16, 2008 People who park too close to other cars making it very difficult, if not impossible, to get into your own car. Especially if they're workmen in big white vans sitting next to their coworkers in another big white van spitting up great (apparently amusing) gobs of saliva (oh, and people who spit in public!) in the space between them. I had to crawl through with a toddler to the backseat through the driver's side door of a three door car in order to get her in her car seat (very cumbersome) and then crawl back through to get myself into the passenger seat. The man sitting in the van was completely unawares - apparently more interested in his coworker's digestive tricks. Ok, I suppose I could have said something - but I don't like to create a fuss.

sassermaet Posted May 16, 2008 Report Share Posted May 16, 2008 Inconsiderate drivers boil my p*** as well. This could be because I don't drive (yet), and I currently live in Glasgow, a city geared more or less towards its drivers, but I have seen a ridiculous amount who drive through red lights as if they are above the law. The other day, my flatmate and I had been out with a friend, and were crossing the road at the crossroads on Montrose / Cathedral St (keep in mind I'm presuming a good few of you know Glasgow). When the green man finally came up we were just about to cross the road when a driver sped through the crossing without so much as a do-you-mind, despite that the two of us and others were blatantly about to cross! How f***ing rude is that?! What made it worse was that that road is always impossibly busy even when it isn't rush hour, and the green man only comes up very occasionally, so why was waiting such a problem?! I'm wishing we'd got that car's number plate and reported the driver to the police now. People like that shouldn't be driving! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JustMe Posted May 16, 2008 Report Share Posted May 16, 2008 To sort of mix two threads I wonder if the Lerwick cctv cameras can be used to catch drivers who ignore red lights.........or in some cases just do not notice them. Certainly happens here and it would be good if a few such drivers were caught. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigMouth Posted May 16, 2008 Report Share Posted May 16, 2008 I wish drivers could park between the lines in the car parks. It seems the smaller the car, the more chance that the dividing line will be running up the middle of the car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roachmill Posted May 16, 2008 Report Share Posted May 16, 2008 ^^And the bigger the car the more chance they'll just park their spotless no-mud-anywhere 4x4 up on the pavement. And I'm no talking about 1 wheel either. You may have an "off-road" vehicle but that doesn't mean you can park it on the pavement! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Medziotojas Posted May 24, 2008 Report Share Posted May 24, 2008 Not that I'm a huge fan of the Eurovision song contest, but come on! The voting system needs binning! The Ukraine gives max points to Russia; Estonia votes for Finland and Russia; Albania, Macedonia, Greece, Bulgaria, etc., share out the points, and so on. These votes have nothing to do with the music. I can usually predict about half the results every year--thankfully without having to listen to the songs. since I have written this rant, Portugal has given 10 points to Spain, and Andorra gave them the full 12 points I need to get out more!!!! since my last edit Russia has got 12 points from both The Ukraine and Lithuania and are looking likely winners; need I say any more about the voting system Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frances144 Posted May 24, 2008 Report Share Posted May 24, 2008 I don't think our Tel was too impressed either. He is talking of packing it in! A great loss if he does. I predicted most of the voting and my kids said I was psychic! No, just a realist. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sassermaet Posted May 25, 2008 Report Share Posted May 25, 2008 I always wonder why we even bother holding it - it's an opportunity for the Eastern Europeans to stick two fingers up at the West. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McMess Posted May 25, 2008 Report Share Posted May 25, 2008 Do many folk still watch the Eurovision in the UK? The last time I watched it I think I was about 8 or 9, and I thought it was unbearable then! Having said that, I did watch Katie Price AKA Jordan's attempt in the heats a few years back. One of the funniest things I've ever seen in my life. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Para Handy Posted May 25, 2008 Report Share Posted May 25, 2008 I found myself wanting the Ireland's turkey back. And its the first time I have seen it since the 1980s and it will be another 25 years, before I will bother to even switch it on again if then Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
