Stupid little things that bug you

Why the fuck would you sweep it into a corner?

Because there is obviously no rug nearby !

I've a mate who bought a nail gun and did the sensible thing, he practised on an old piece of wood before doing the real job.

He nailed the wood onto the lid of the chest freezer he was using as a work bench.

Edit. I forgot to mention, he nailed the freezer lid down!

It should be Team GB & Northern Ireland & British Crown Dependencies.

I'd prefer all the home nations separate so we could have more athletes in it.

I spend a considerable amount in various pubs, and it has never once occurred to me in all that time to check where the sockets are.

I believe that used to be the case, but most dependencies seem to have set up sport on their own. When Cavendish won an Olympic medal in cycling, which country was he representing?

I am in agreement with you Mr Ball and I would go one step further, I have never had to charge my phone in a pub. I suppose most pubs have plugs for the cleaners but the ones I go in they just use a mop and bucket.

GB & NI. He represented IoM at the Commonwealth.

British Overseas Territories athletes are more complicated. British Virgin Islands do compete at the Olympics as BVI but Gibraltar are blocked by Spain (& Rodri) and some others such as Turks & Caicos just choose to be part of Team GB.
