Lorries aren't allowed in the outside lane on a motorway, and Audi drivers are incapable of leaving it.

I was thinking more when he's sat stationary in the left hand lane trying to bully his way in to a queue.

Just the merest fleeting thought of that unfunny ponce jack whitehall or that imbecilic fat ***k corden going through my head...Even if it is always a thought about stabbing the pair of them in the throat repeatedly with a bookies' pen.

had a phone call from the registry office rather than an email.

all sounding good, except the bit that makes me fume a little bit is the fact the payment has to be done in one go, can't be paid in installments. bit of an issue seeing as though the money is coming from three different sources! And i cant pay any more because the other half will notice it has gone.

So nee to arrange for two brothers to have the full 150 between them at the end of the month and pay it all in one go to make sure it is confirmed for the wedding.

need to know how many seats i do have though because i am currently at 49 out of the hyperthetical 50 seats already and that does not include any kids or extra guests so far

Is someone pushing hard for their kids to attend? If not, give some thought to making it adults only - kids get very bored at weddings and often act up as a result, spoiling things for everyone else. Many an expensive wedding video has been rendered pointless by crying babies, squealing toddlers and noisy pre-teens...

only kids that will attend i can imagine will be my cousins 2, and my 2. I don't think any others will attend to be perfectly honest, but you never know if someone absolutely needs to bring someone with them.

Not too fussed about videos or anything, although i may need to look into paying to get a photographer if possible. But i'll speak to the other half about that one.

My dad is meant to be giving me money which was a little out of the blue!

These type of creatures are reasons I don't watch live TV ( sports aside) I just record what I want and never have to bother with the crap I don't want to see . I haven't even got a clue if east Enders is still going I haven't had to watch a soap or reality show in years. Boss

Bet365's CashOut button. It appears to mock you when you're losing but not when you've 8 out of 9 winners in an accumulator and would fancy the Cash.

Audis and BMWs - the scourge of the roads. 80% of time there is a holdup in traffic, be it suburban or on the motorway, you will find it's caused by someone driving an Audi or a BMW. Is there a special chapter in the owner's manual ZB?

I think they put testosterone in the air filter tbh

Personally despise anybody who, when in the supermarket, gets to the checkout and either:

1. Doesn't pack their items immediately/put them quickly back into their trolley (live in a country where there generally isn't loads of room and the next customer has to wait for person in front of them to be completely finished before your stuff can be scanned through

2. Isn't ready to pay/appears surprised to be asked to pay (generally old women - "That's 35,66 please", cue woman looking shocked and starting to search frantically for her purse).

Or people who start counting out changes for about 50 seconds, only to realise they don't have enough and then take out their card instead, making the transaction last about 3 minutes rather than the 1 minute it should take: "2 pounds, 3 pounds, 4 pounds, 4 pounds twenty, twenty five, six, twenty seven... oh, I don't have enough, I'll pay with the card please." 'Kin idiots.

Also, on a similar note, when there is a massive queue at just one checkout, then another member of staff appears and opens up a second checkout and calls out for people to come over, and people miles behind you leg it over there without a second thought that maybe, just maybe, those people who've been waiting longer should be allowed to go over first.

Also grumpy checkout staff.

I just basically hate German supermarkets, awful awful places.

When I leg it over to the checkout which is just about to open, only to wait five minutes before somebody appears.
