    You see normal-sized, apparently strong and healthy males dragging along behind them something the size of an anorexic shoe box. Come to steps or escalators and they have to stop (regardless of those behind them) and retract the handle and pick up the bloody thing, reversing the process at the top/bottom with consequent inconvenience to all but themselves.

    Then you get the situation where people have a large wheeled case, which they are unable to carry.

    I saw that earlier today (Sun). Short but very good.
    They do tend to repeat items on the quite a lot. Some very interesting programmes shown though.
    One on XH558 earlier.

    I see that a lot of the refugees are moving into recently vacated, former UK Army barracks.

    I’ve been using Google quite a bit today, without too much trouble. The main problem I encounter,
    is the need to be very specific in the question you ask. Otherwise the answers can be very ambiguous.

    Really Alan? Sounds as though you should copy and paste your rant to them, instead of posting here!;)

    You know what they say about a trouble shared………….

    Just remembered, there is also the “What annoyed you today ?” thread.

    Who’s Jacquie Lawson anyway? Sounds as though your spam protection needs toughening up, Alan!!;)

    There’s a chap I know in the US who sends them, as well as my sister. They both sent the same Halloween one 🙁
    I suppose I could set my email preferences to block them ?
