I love your scary face Rosie  Twice in the past week I have found goods in the supermarket priced wrongly by being in the wrong place - it is annoying  The feta cheese chunks and blocks were in the wrong places - there is 50p difference in price. I mentioned it to an assistant who said they would sort it but 2 weeks later they hadn't- so I changed them over myself ! Last week I was going to buy my walnuts and the 300g bags were where the 100g bags should be - a difference in price of over £2.00 - I swapped these over ,too ! |

I'm the same, I'm always swapping things round in shops when they're in the wrong place, I'm never sure whether they're deliberately trying to mislead people or it's just laziness or carelessness. I have been known to sort through an entire section when I've found something out of date & taken all the 'guilty' packs to the till to point out they shouldn't be selling them (at least not at full price!) By the way I've never worked in a shop/store - I think I'm just a bit of a control freak/compulsive 'sorter'! |

One of my pet hates (not necessarily the main one) is people in the queue at the checkout who suddenly appear to be surprised that they have to pay for their shopping and take forever trying to find their purse/wallet or whatever and then decide they don't have enough cash and have to do another search for their card. Also while on supermarket gripes you get the people who decide to completely block the aisle while holding a communal reunion quite oblivious to the fact they are holding up other shoppers from getting on.   ha ha !  I see that so many times SP( I do a lot of shopping ) |

one of my pet hates is when a supermarket swaps the shelves around and I can`t find stuff when i`m in a hurry. Tesco recently moved the black pudding away from the sausages, even into another isle  I mean to say, black pudding goes with the bacon and the sausages ,why move it makes no sense . Of course I complained and guess what, so did others and they moved it back again |

Most of the above, plus Rosie`s scary face, have had to change my underwear twice while reading this thread because of it.

My pet hate is graffiti, just can not see the sense in it, but I had to bite my tong as I used to work in a public building that had art displays from time to time and to my horror they did a display of graffiti and called it art.
Yuk...

Don't you like Banksy's work? caretaker? I don't appreciate the spray can teenagers with their 'tags' but I think that Banksy is a real artist. His work sells for huge sums of money.  One he did in New York. |

I'm not very up on art but when the graffiti artist arrived they asked for our display boards, we had 12 new ones only been on one display, they came at 7pm to get it all ready and our cleaners would lock up afterwards.
I arrived the next morning to find they had actually painted on the boards, my boss told me to ignore it as the news papers had sponsored them and we did not wont any bad press.

So - not up to Banksy standard then, caretaker. Here's another one, in Bristol this time.  |

My Ipad is like that, @hywel, but it learns if I correct it. All clever stuff. I'm annoyed because a gift we got for our grandson is faulty, so we'll have to take it back. |
