The sport that unites Catholic, Protestant and dissenter has had its day of days. Pity anybody who can't enjoy it. Some day.

People who say nothing when you're drawing up or developing something.
A design/plan is formulated, emails are sent back and forth asking if everyone is happy, meetings are held, no objections etc....
Last email is sent out for the go/no go decision.... no objections
Budget signed off...... no issues

Project is started.....

Then one person starts complaining about something.

You had MONTHS to raise this concern. You had plenty of opportunities to give your input.
Now f**k off :evil:

Consider yourself lucky! I had to fight off Kevin Humphreys at lunch time. Lucinda would have been a pleasure by comparison :wink:

Couldn't agree more. The ones in the papers a while ago were bad enough, now we get the movie version...cringe-making.

Missing the QF.

Not being able to get involved in OH's increasing excitement about the QF.

Having to listen to my entire family talk about the QF.

QF fever in general. Yes, I am bitter.

HP printers.

Ink levels are fine and midway through an important black and white print job it decides that it's just run out of magenta and can't continue. Ink is expensive enough when you're actually using it, crooks.
