Over the top enthusiasm from parents at their kids sporting events. I thought it only happened in American films but naw. Watching my young lad playing rugby (10 year olds) and some of the shite coming out of the parents is embarrassing.

The near impossibly of keeping footwells clean. Everyone dragging shit in with them constantly.

When I was 19 I managed an under14s soccer team. The fucking state of the parents. I had the tell the players to ignore the fuckers. All wannabe managers who knew fuck all about the game.

Yeah, there was a break in the play, a parent next to me called over his son and started telling him to pass it quicker etc, get it wide. Would ya fuck off and let him enjoy himself ya spa, he's 10.

Maloney is fucking useless. Hamilton miles ahead of him.

The skin on the backs of my hands is absolutely fucked since the cold weather started. Dry and cracked, sore as fuck. Bought a tub of O'Keefe's hand cream that seems to be helping but it's unpleasant at the moment.

My hands are always in bits from work but that cold snap has made absolute shit out of them.
The trials and tribulations life throws at us.  :'(

Aye, washing horse rugs makes a shite of them for me but there's been damn all of that this year. Just the bad week there.

That's fair enough in one way but imagine the absolute shit they've to put up with at Christmas with people wondering why the things they haven't received haven't arrived and the drivers know fuck all about it

Currently have 6 dogs in the house one is a new puppy who has only been here 3 weeks so she is still getting settled in. 2 of the dogs go crazy sometimes when the bell rings and fight so we put a sign up over the bell asking people not to ring it just incase anything happens with the pup but still most drivers go ahead and ring the bell.

Customs charges again. Twice in the space of a week, adding €9+ each to the price of the T-shirts I bought.

from USA? I've been stung before, never again!

UK, T-shirts from Plastichead. Got some there before, no charges. Luck of the draw, it seems.

Dropkick Murphys in general, but I'm Shipping Up To Boston is as annoying when trotted out at 'Irish'sporting events as Sweet Caroline is at English ones.

On a related note, anyone who's not an OAP wearing a flatcap. Just fuck off.
