Radio 2 in the Park 2024

[Emma]

Was it the hot one, though?

[Grace]

Was it the hot one, though?

Noo, he would be immediately forgiven. Although this one did reference Gavin and Stacey so I suppose I could let him off the hook...

[DC]

when it gets so hot in my room during the night that i keep waking up.

[Lucinda]

Yeah, same as DC, when I wake up in the night because it's too hot feeling really dehydrated.

Hayfever. My eyes are all puffy and sore. I just got shampoo in them which didn't really help.

[Danishgirl]

When people spell pigeon 'pidgeon'.

haha, I only found out how to spell it a few weeks ago or something. But then again, I'm not English, I guess quite as bad then.

There are some Danish spelling mistakes that really annoy me, because being Danish you should know better.

[FreakaZoid101]

when it gets so hot in my room during the night that i keep waking up.

Yep. I get that too. It's practically impossible to sleep. Utterly boiling. And I can't sleep with the windows open because I live on a main road and it's like chav central round where I live.

[DaNNiP15]

when it gets so hot in my room during the night that i keep waking up.

i hate that. i have to keep looking for a cold patch on my pillow

[YoppaDo]

Hayfever. My eyes are all puffy and sore. I just got shampoo in them which didn't really help.

Whenever people even talk about sore eyes, my own eyes start watering themselves, very strange.

I hate that hot bedroom thing too, I don't wake up so much, it's just not being able to get to sleep in the first place, and then looking at the clock and seeing how late it's getting, knowing you have to wake up early the next day

[DaNNiP15]

Heat rash. I have it and its itchy and lumpy!

At least i think its heat rash

[SEANN]

When you can't remember something.

[Lucinda]

When people write 'gr8' and 'm8' in texts!:evil:

Yeah, I have a friend who writes even short texts in 'txtspk'. There's just no need. Trying to decipher a message where he's used the @ symbol 4 times is a waste of my time and it can't be any quicker to write.

My browser has been killed twice today already by adverts for this Blinkx site. They say "this site brought to you by blinkx.com" then it crashes Firefox. It's very annoying. I also hate it when windows pop up over the one I'm trying to use.

[Catherine.]

Getting burn't by any appliance, e.g. oven, hob, toaster etc.

Itches for days.

[Behelzebub]

The fact that Channel 4 always seem to schedule commercial breaks straight after the opening credits of particular programmes, like Desperate Housewives... it's something that's annoyed me for a very long time. I know there's sometimes a bit of build-up before the credits on some programmes but it usually only lasts about 4/5 minutes... it's just pointless really.

When I was in Canada they'd show the opening credits of The Simpsons and then have a commercial break. I suppose channel 4 is going the North American way.

[superchris0110]

I swear there was some OFCOM regulations on when broadcasters were allowed to put the first commercial breaks in after the start of the programme, how long they could be, and how long between each set of commercial breaks. If so ITV sport broadcasts are screwed because there are about 15 commercial breaks during halftime of football!

It is really annoying, I hate it especially when it happens at a key part of the story, nothing worse then having to wait another 5 minutes to find something big out! I swear they do it on purpose!!!

[Chris.]

Now I get weird looks whenever I say this, but I can't stand Polystyrene.

I can't touch it because it freaks me out, and the sound it makes just makes me shiver!

[SEANN]

Charities really annoy me. How dare they place guilt upon me for the world's poverty

[Behelzebub]

I'd like to add a new annoyance to this thread - Radio 1 mixing that bley jingle into the beginning of pretty much every single record they play. Enough already!

[sinister]

European cup finals involving the scummiest two clubs in Europe annoy me.

[Lucinda]

When things are in the bin that should be recycled, like cans and glass. It seems really wrong to me, as I was brought up to recycle everything possible by my dad. It doesn't take any more effort to put things in the recycling here.

[sinister]

Lucinda, is it your dad who makes you squash all the air out of plastic bottles and screw the lids back on so they take up less room? Makes such a difference to how many bin bags you use.

[Lucinda]

No, we recycle the plastic bottles

Here they collect plastic bottles, but not the lids, so lids go in the bin. At home, my dad collects them up and takes them to a recycling centre.

[Bumble_85]

When people ring you and hardly let the phone ring before hanging up then ignore you when you try and find out what they wanted.

[SEANN]

When there's a bird in the gymnasium where you're sitting your business studies exams and it is tapping on the windows, flying around the room and being a huge distraction.

[Guest CancerForTheCure]

When people tell you the same story over and over again and they still carry on after you've told them you'd heard it before.
