I used to think she was a bit of a fox: Dawn

But your picture has put me right off.

Any hole is not a goal when it's DP.

a simpering simpleton of a Labour MP called "Red" Dawn ("Dim Prawn") Primarolo, formerly a treasury minister who introduced IR35. She was also responsible for and cocked up the Child Tax credit system, and later had to apologise to Parliament for misleading MPs about this fiasco.

It's surprisingly hard to find an image of her, but there's one here

Never heard of them before, but their profile of "accelerated growth" has the alarm bells ringing here. Probably more bothered about the next acquisition than providing customer service.

That's remarkably incisive. One of their partners once said to me "Perception is everything". Which clearly shows that his view is that actually delivering is optional (especially as the provable and documented quality of what they ended up delivering). Or, as one of my colleagues succintly put it. "**** perception".

She has a bit of a fish face, not helped by those bubbles in the back ground.

The Swiss bureaucrat who decided that part of the requirements to pass the local equivalent of the MOT is a steam-cleaned engine.

People who smoke outside, walking on the path in front of me when I've gone out for a spot of fresh air.

Is there another one?

And Simon Cowell.

And Dim Prawn (not, not our one).

17. Email spammers, I would have to come up with something especially nasty in the execution method for these people. Torturing to death over a couple of excruciating months would be far too good for them

If anyone reclines a seat on us on a short / medium haul flight then we just let our six year old sit in the seat behind them and kick the back of the seat repeatedly until they get the message. Failing that, it's the old sharp push on the back of the seat just as they are putting a drink to their lips.

Not that I would ever put my seat back on a plane (except in business class) but I was on the receiving end of this particular method of in-flight torture for 12 hours from LA to Heathrow in 2000.

Did I say anything to the kid or his parents? Of course not, I'm British! I just sat and quietly fumed the whole flight.

[Alf W]

People who jam the seat back as fast as they can without looking behind them first.

[Board Game Geek]

People who are intolerant of other people's habits.

I would suggest that the problem lies more with the person being intolerant, than the transgressor themselves.

[bogeyman]

People who insist on taking 50 kilos of hand luggage on to planes and then take up all the luggage space for the whole row.

People who barge to the front of the queue to get on the bus to travel to said aircraft and then stand in the doorway meaning that everyone else has to squeeze past them. I presume this is so that they're first on the aircraft and so can jam their cases in the luggage space.

People who jump out of their seat as soon as plane wheels hit tarmac and start unloading baggage into other peoples laps before racing down the aisle to get off first.

People who think they're going to get an email on their f'ing blackberry at 60,000 ft and so subtly check it every five mins.

People who can't control the volume on their ipods.

People who jam the seat back as fast as they can without looking behind them first.

People who don't apologise when they smack a baby in the head with their seat causing it to cry for the next hour.

People who take babies on flights





I think that's about it at the mo.
