What gets your goat?
Watch this postWhat gets my goat is the man in the bright orange shirt constantly reminding me that my demise is not far off and that I should take his good deal with his Funeral plan because all the other Funeral plans are a ripoff.
While I am happily listening to great music on Youtube, suddenly, there he is, rudely interrupting, in his orange shirt and stentorian tone, ( in case any of us of the older persuasion are hard of hearing I should think!.) My instinctive reaction is to clench my teeth and rush to click on SKIP to stop him, (this could result in an accident, or a visit to the now rarer than hen's teeth Dentist.)
Grrrrrr! There is a way to stop adverts on Youtube...pay of course!
Highway robbery of a different kind, held to ransom by annoying Adverts.

I live close to the border in Dumfries and Galloway and have the british obsession with the weather forecasts.Well frequently there is a line directly going through my area in a mulitude. . of directions .Do I know whether I will have the weather to the right or left of this line?
Generally looking out of the window solves the problem but sometimes one likes to plan ahead.
Another thing that gets my goat and this is more serious is the fact that people seem unable to indicate especially at roundabouts.
Well it is UK, going out for the day means, take a cardi, raincoat and umbrella...just in case!
Don't get me started on indicating, not just on roundabouts, I was behind a range rover the other day that didn't signal once. I think not indicating is the new disease.
On the upside, it does keep your brain alert to the game of "guess where I'm going now!"
I am just happy with my lot
too early for me!
It's loud "take two cows taffy" conversation with the whole of the pigeon population makes me want to buy a shotgun! Blasted bird!
