What's annoyed you?

Automatic eBay feedback. If I buy something, as soon as I've paid, which I always do immediately, the seller should leave me feedback. I've done my part, there's nothing more I can do.
Instead, I get reminders from eBay prodding me to leave feedback for the seller, who is waiting for me to leave good feedback, when in actual fact, they should have left the buyer (me) feedback days ago.

That’s true.

Talking of old codgers yattering away.....

Job for today was to thread the Christmas light feed through some flexible conduit, which I would be putting in a trench to the foot of the tree in the garden.

Old codger saw me threading the cable, so stopped to tell me about his day. I tried to not be distracted, but clearly failed.

Flexible conduit kept coiling itself back up, so I was burying it a foot at a time.

Did a lovely neat job, folding the lawn back over. You'd never know the trench was beneath.

Only when I went to connect the lights up, did I realise I'd buried the thing the wrong way around, so the plug connector end was up the tree........
