You know what really grinds my gears

Waiting to find out if i'm on the news team.
Attention to news team mods, Check your PM's and respond.
 
The premier league being referred to as the EPL. I dont know why, it just annoys me, we dont hear La Liga being called SLL:p.

Taken on board, vBookie events won't be referred to EPL, but as Premiership. I just started doing it because that's how everyone spoke about it :)

This is also now incorrect. :p As of August 2007 the Premiership became known as the Premier League!
 
What grinds my gears currently?

Public Transport!

It's Sunday, I need to be at Lord's before 12pm. I arrive at my local station at 9:40, knowing there is a train at around 10:00 which should take almost exactly 1 hour to get me to Victoria station in thattherelondon.

It arrives on time, its pretty empty, its also pretty clean.

Sadly its only going as far as Swanley, where I need to change and go to Blackfriars. Oh and wait 40 mins!

So I arrive in London a bit late, no problem, I'll take Circle/District and then change at Westminster for the jubilee line, I can still make the start of the match.

Get on a circle line tube, arrive at Westminster, its at this point that the guard chooses to announce that the Jubilee line isn't running today!

So now I need to stay on the circle line and go on to Victoria - where i wanted to be in the first place!

2 changes later I'm at St Johns Wood, its past 12, I've missed the start of the match. Oh and its raining, but I don't think I can blame London transport for that.

Of course the problems still exist after the match and I don't get home until nearly 11pm

All this for the bargain price of £18 for what shouldn't have taken much longer that 1 1/2 hours each way including all the stops at stupid little stations.
 
Combined with a collapse of your batting order, I'm sure Kev had a good day!
 
Carlsberg don't do public transport. But if they did, it would probably be the best public transport in the world ;)

Kev's dream. Able to arrive at Lord's on time plus enjoy a free complimentary pint :p

talk about a bad day and i think you deserve some reps for writing it all up so have some.
 
That feeling where you put your foot in it and you feel really bad about it.

Like just now I didn't mean too but my friends mum thought I called her dirty when I didn't but now I feel guilty because I she thought i did. Wupsy.
 
I know what you mean. I once did a gay joke only to find out the guy was gay :eek: I had to spend another week working with him which was really akward. He was an absolute a** hole though, no one liked him
 
Shame, bet you had a chance with him before that too, or were you and Will still together at the time?

Trying to get my mate to say sorry to his mum from me now :D
 
What I can't see her, she's a teacher it's her job to tell people off!

You should feel guilty about your grammar, Joe ;)
