You'd be amazed by the amount of irritable toyboys you have out there apart from Jefferson above! There's <a href="http://www.darrenbyrne.com/wordpress/?p=211" rel="nofollow">Darren</a>, the other <a href="http://www.digitaldarragh.com/2008/07/09/IveBeenMemed.aspx" rel="nofollow">Darragh</a>, the dashing <a href="http://www.davidmaybury.ie/journal/?p=220" rel="nofollow">David</a> and <a href="http://chancingmyarm.blogspot.com/2008/07/random-access-memery.html" rel="nofollow">Andrew</a> as well.

GM. that’s what Toyboys are for you know, keeping you flexing your fingers :-P

I’ve already blogged mine but the ones above that I’d also share:

* Wimps
* Waste
* Maz’s jobs comment
* Mike’s points 2 and 7
* Darlene’s points - but mainly computer glitches!
* I share Magpie’s affect/effect hatred too!

You’d be amazed by the amount of irritable toyboys you have out there apart from Jefferson above!

There’s Darren, the other Darragh, the dashing David and Andrew as well. I think they could all do with a hug from Grannymar. Or at least a cup of tea, a biscuit and a chat :-P . Think we could do a group hug?

Thanks for that link! As for the thing that is irritating me at the moment: my typing errors......I bash away and send a mail and then I get a reply and I se e all my typos..... other irritants....things like the misuse of "effect" and "affect". Just as an example. Drivers who (over here) turn left and ignore pedestrians crossing the junction! (I'm a pedestrian) and those who turn right without signalling. Not remembering where I've put something and then having the whole household search for it for me...they drop everything to "help"... Oh! I won't go on.

Big Irritations
1. Patronising men . . . I can’t stand being spoken to as if I was 18 years old but it happens on a daily basis
2. Politicians, they seem to forget that they are representative of the people and not in it for the power trip

Little Irritations
1. My washing machine because it doesn’t spin properly and the clothes are soggy so it has to go through two spin cycles
2 Skype deciding to have a ‘nana nap’ every 20 minutes when I’m madly talking to someone

But I’m not really irritated this week . . catch me when I’m really grumpy!
