International hotel chains that STILL charge ridiculous amounts for WiFi access when most hotels dont charge at all.
currently using mobile data and my phone as a hot spot

Re: Gripe of the day - What is yours?
A beautiful day cycling in Wales partly spoilt by some inconsiderate @rsehole throeing drawing pins all over the road. It was by a golf club so I guess the members couldn't stand the thought of missing a round.

Numpty car drivers who flash you when you are pulled in from filtering.
Yes I was wide so I can see suicidal pedestrians. But you dint slow or have to stop texting as you drove.

Schools. Big deal on the box today about fines for taking kids out of school.
Well in the real world people are saving thousands on the holidays and paying only hundreds in fines. Just a though. Why don't they mix up the school terms anyway???

Re: Gripe of the day - What is yours?
When Mrs. BP started in teaching, Wigan schools did vary their summer holidays. Goes back to when the mills would shut for a holiday but would stagger the closures to avoid overloading the local holiday locations. Mostly Blackpool from here. Her school was an early summer holiday school, so for years, our annual two weeks away would be off peak, saving us loads of money. Plus, not as busy when you're there! Gutted when they fell in line with the rest of the UK.
