It's bad enough when some drivers only start indicating AFTER they've already started to turn; but there seem to be a growing number of people who don't bother using them at all. They just turn and look at you oddly when you scream and shout in their general direction. Admittedly, some might say that there's no need when there are no other vehicles in the immediate vicinity; to which I point out... pedestrians are road-users too, and it would be helpful if we were given some clue as to what you're doing, particularly as we're likely to end up much worse off than you if we happen to collide. Oh... and where does it say in the Highway Code that it's alright to park wherever you like "as long as you leave your hazard lights on"? - Paul F C, via email Snow way to run a website 2 - 07/10/10 Dear National Rail Enquiries, Snow way to run a website - 06/10/10Snow means train drivers cant make it in.

Pit! - @dalekcat via Twitter iQuit iCarly - 7/12/9Just watched Nick's ramping up of gratuitous violence in the televised iCarly movie "iQuit iCarly" with daughter and wife. In between segments, still photos of the hitting and smacking in the face scenes were used as teasers. The writers bought off the 90 minutes of abuse comedy with a 20 second makeup scene. Check it out. We were appalled and am trying to find iCarly email feedback contact info. A few days ago after a talk with our elementary school principal, Susanna Gomez, I had a talk with my 9 year old daughter. "Jasmine, Principal Gomez told us that too much tv is toxic for kids' growing brains. It messes up your ability to concentrate for more than 5 minutes at a time, and in fifth and sixth grade, long periods of concentration are required to get through the reading. If you don't want a disaster, we have to cut down tv watching and practice reading for longer and longer period of time." I'm not embroidering this rhetoric. Jasmine had been watching. . . well, I'm too embarrassed to tell you how many hours (4). Maintaining her awareness of these issues requires reminders and mother/father unity or you're screwed. Backsliding is a given since the residual effect of her habitual watching is always a threat until the new habit takes root. Again, the secret seemed to be convincing her that tv can injure the brain. She really took it to heart, and she's increasingly reading and writing for entertainment. - Jeff P - via Email Check AngryBritain's blog post on this very subject here: http://tiny.cc/oqcgV - Daniel P , London Save Ambleside Uni! - 6/12/9 Hello @angrybritain. (Twitter ID!) We need your help! After secretly p****** (Ahem , rules! AB) money away for a few years, The University of Cumbria have decided to close its Ambleside Teaching Campus less than 8 weeks after a new batch of undergrads started term. They have mislead the students, the parents of students and the community into thinking that any such closures would be well into the future. Below is a blog from my little brother who is one of those undergraduates. I implore you all to have a read and sign a petition on http://ourcampaign.org.uk/amblesidecampus Thank you - Alex LJ - via Twitter Save Ambleside Uni (Cont'd from above) - 2/12/9BRING YOUR DREAMS AND WE'LL TAKE THEM ELSEWHERE! Well it's a sad sad day for Ambleisde eh! the self proclaimed home of Educational inspirator Charlotte Mason is comming to its end, the person who help shape and form the way people view and teach within Britain is being shunned aside to accomodate for the more "profitable" campus of Carlilse and Lancaster. WHAT A F***** (Oi, Language - AB) JOKE. The shock of this incident was unprecidented and is something that I am sure, whatever the issue, only exasserbated a long and tiring process of self deprecation and poor management, but we wont dwell on that...ok we will, but maybe a little later. The entire situation likens itself, for me atleast to the morning after the night before. You wake up in a daze, lights killing your eyes and you swear down that you could NEVER have spent all of the £28 million pounds you withdrew from the cash machine without realising. SURELY NOT, so you replay it through in your mind. There were the shots in the bar, the 5 to 10 pints in the SU, oh and that new massive Sports Centre in Lancaster, and you collapse in a pathetic heap on the floor of your cheffuer driven car as you rocking backwards and forwards. Anyone else? NO? well let me take you on a journey eh... FLASH BACK TO SEPTEMBER 2009... Results day. A nervous time in everyones life...no not the results...because you want one more pop at the champ, the last chance to have get Bully's "what you could of had" prize that is your high school love interest. BUT ANYWAY, only achieving a BDD I decided to sack my original plan of Business Studies in light of a new life style, something that actually meant something, something where people called you Sir because they respected you not because they were paid to...and then it clicked, PRIMARY EDUCATION! YES! THATS PERFECT! So after much dilberation, "but mum theres simply not enough pubs per person ratio" you settle on the ideal place, and for me...that was the lazy little CUMBRIAN village if Ambleside! Having only got in through clearing it was clear this was my last shot at the title, so I put on my suit and headed off...the weather was nice, the view was emmence and the campus and those within seemed to me like an idealic setting to spend three years. This was later improved by the promise that last year around 85% of students leaving the University found full time employment within the first 6 months, AMAZING! PERFECT! I could ride out the economic crisis on the backs of admittedly innocent tax payers, and repay my debt to society, both financial and by allowing the future generations of Britain to excell and succeed leading to a fast service time in KFC! BUT WAIT, it gets better, not only is it a nice place to be it presented itself within the welcome slides as "the second best teaching campus in Europe". WOW! I'VE BEEN THERE I THOUGHT TO MYSELF! thats amazing! Europe, thats possibly better than Spain, Italy and even France, and the last time that happend Churchill took the lead...to be fair the best campus could have been a small shack in Wales for all I knew but, no this place seemed like the BEST place to spend 3 years and £12,000! STROLL ON! FAST FORWARD TO DECEMBER 2009... I've been here for over 8 weeks and made numerous friends for life, I wake up a little like I already said, the morning after the night before, blishfully unaware that today was the end. I stroll up to the Library with the perfect intention of doing some work at 11.00 and at 11.10 I came back home. PERFECT STUDENT. Hunger had set in and as I walked through the APL I saw the holy grail of spread, sandwiches, dips and those little bread shape things that taste like cheese...you know what I mean like up market mini cheddars, cause there no normal mini cheddars that Charlotte Mason mini chedders. Anyways, some suits walk up and start munching away. Thinking nothing of it I ordered my sandwich and sneak of back to bed. WE ARE BEING SHUT DOWN! CHAOS! MADNESS! I swear to god the only time I've seen more water in anyone place was Cockermouth a few weeks ago! BUT PEOPLE CRYING? WHATS UP? rumours flying whats going on...THEN SUCCESS 5.00PM THE BAR! RESULT! WE'LL SHOW THOSE SUITS THEY CAN'T F*** (Getting hump now - AB) AROUND WITH A-SIDE. Here they come, the enemy..."hey guys" crys a sheepishly over paid minion "just want to give you the opportunity to ask any questions you may have regarding the issues today" BANG! the hands of anger go up on mass like a sea of...well angry people with questions I suppose. BUT anyway, questions fly and comments made, the best being "you should change your motto from bring your dreams, to bring your dreams and we'll take them someone else" GOOD LAD! VICTORY! and like an odd episode the Jeremy Kyle more and more comments are fired...but the suits have a plan, the master of all plans...the "I AM RUBBER YOU ARE GLUE WHAT YOU SAY BOUNCES OF ME A STICKS TO YOU" the sly f****** (Final Warning - AB) ! "We had planned to expand over the last couple of years, but obviously we can't do that now" WELL NO REMOVED REMOVED! I thought that if I want to expand my business I had to buy more business but ha silly me I think i'll sell it and go home just in time for Neighbours. THEN...WHEN A HERO COMES ALONG, WITH THE STRENGTH TO CARRY ON...DAVE! YOU ROLL OUT THOSE POLITIICAL PUNCHES! "Excuse me, ha this is actually a student conferance" TOUGH REMOVED LADY DAVE ROLES WITH US NOW! HA! "We didn't realise that we were in that financial position" OH OK! sorry here I was under the fairly innocent assumption that £11.8 million was a fairly easy thing to keep an eye on, obviously not! OH SPEAKING OF WHICH IF ANYBODY HAS SEEN A BRIEF CASE FULL OF CASH AMOUNTING TO AROUND THAT FIGURE PLEASE CONTACT ME I SEEM TO HAVE MISPLACED IT...what do you mean it's now a Sports Centre? Then theres a Window of opportunity to just take that suited and booted team of nerds and knock them down a peg. BUT OF COURSE, as they do so well, they ignored the situation for well over 40 minutes, "maybe his arm will get tired" nah not this one! STAND UP! "So if I get my student maintainance loan of around £3,500 that covers the lot as does my tution fees then how the REMOVED can you lose track of that amount of money?" "Well we have pentitions to pay" GO ANSWER, SUCH A GOOD ANSWER, "oh well sorry thats ok then" REMOVED REMOVED. Home my friends is where the heart is. Charlotte Masons heart was here, the University of Cumbrias heart lies here, and guess what SO DOES MINE! So take Lancaster, take Carisle, take REMOVED London AND SHOVE IT UP YOUR REMOVED because I ain't giving up without a fight and no one should! Those who got us into this mess and those who ignored it SHOULD BE REMOVED ASHAMED! YOU'VE KILLED EDUCATION, AMBLESIDE AND THE DREAMS AND ASPERATIONS OF NOT ONE OR TWO BUT THREE YEARS OF STUDENTS! REMOVED KNOWS WHAT THE FUTURE HOLDS... UCAS Operator: "So your applying for Lancaster Sir?" Student: "No AM-BLE-SIDE" UCAS Operator: "Carlisle?" Student: "No AM-BLE-SIDE, you know massive hills, always rains?" UCAS Operator: "Putting you through to Lancaster now Sir thank you" - Alex LJ's Little Brother, Cumbria British Airways versus the Bravest Woman in Britain *Former Beef of the Week*- 28/10/9 Here's how I see it: Three weeks ago I was diagnosed with breast cancer - I am 47, am self-employed and a single Mum with three children. Having had one lot of surgery for the cancer, they now discover I need further surgery which will involve almost complete removal of one of my breasts as well as all my lymph nodes from under my left arm. This is because there were remaining traces of cancer which they didn't expect to find - all a bit of a shocker! Prior to my diagnosis, I had a flight to Barbados booked with British Airways in November-my first holiday in 3 years. My little old Dad who is 80 still runs an export business to the Caribbean so I didn't have to pay for any accommodation. However, I cannot go now as I shall have started chemo at this time and will still be sore from the surgery.

We want to hear from you and will update this section as they come in - The Angryman From Twitter: twitter.com/angrybritain robots_ @angrybritain and the media had to do an epic u-turn seeing as he was a 'child molester' until he kicked the bucket robots_@ AngryBritain excessive, for one. and as i think @charltonbrooker said, on sky it was still 'breaking news' two days later. wtf? clairelouise2 @AngryBritain tired of it already, people already comparing to Diana! He had some good songs in the 80s, since then just a media circus Knittalottia @AngryBritain to be honest, yes its sad but there are many more important things!! #maternalhealth for instance!! Welshracer @AngryBritain Why whats happened to MJ? Helpful Centre - 23/6/9 This is a response to @AngryBritain's "Helpless Centre" Beef. (Below - AB) OK, @AngryBritain - I love your tweets, you help to keep me sane on my way to work and I often find myself nodding and agreeing with you HOWEVER... I really need to put the other side of the Call Centre story across. It's Monday morning, like most of the country I'm off to work. My mission? To help customers, solve problems and generally make them feel good about the company I work for. In short, I work in Customer Relations, we're a team of people who's purpose is to rescue a situation once everything's gone wrong and help customers in the hope that they'll return. Now this means that we deal with people after they've travelled. In the mobile phone industry we'd be called "retentions" in the car industry we'd be After Sales Care, but the important thing is we are a post travel team. We have one of those touch-tone thingies that asks you to select which department is best for you. Why? Because otherwise we'd have to hire a team of receptionists to direct your call, and that would mean you'd have to pay for them. But in these credit-cruch recessional times you want to save money, so we need to automate it. I think that my company's menu's quite straightforward, for Sales press 1, Flight times 2, Help with your booking 3 and if you have recently travelled and want to talk to us about it? Option 4. It's not difficult. So I leave the house and, like @AngryBritain I have the joys of the UK Commute. buses that arrive if and when they want, smelly passengers beside me, coffee shops that aren't open early enough on a Saturday, Big Issue sellers on every corner and a corner shop with an owner who has two speeds, slow and reverse. But, like the millions of others, I fight my way through to the office and sign in to the numerous systems that I need, reservations, emails, complaints log, check-in, the list goes on... Then 08.00 kicks round and I signin to my phone, start writing a reply to one of the passengers that I emailed last night and a call comes through. "Good Morning, you're through to Ethan in Customer Relations, how can I help?" I'm bright, I'm breezy, I smile down the phone and sincerly want to help this person... "Oh! Are you a real person, Steven was it?" comes the sharp, clipped voice at the end of the line. "Absolutely Sir, and it's Ethan by the way." Still smiling, still bright - I'm sure we can get this sorted if the customer needs me. "Well Euan, I've been waiting for 15 minutes to get through to you!" I look at the clock, it's 08.03, the department's been open for 3 minutes. "I'm sorry to hear that sir, let's see if we can get things sorted for you..." "I want to make a booking but your website's broken, you've got no helpdesk number and I can't get through to sales..." Ah... never fear, I know just the person that can help, we have a helpdesk AND a sales team, so let's just see how we can get this guy to understand... "I'm sorry to hear that sir, it's very rare for the website to not work at all so I think the best thing to do would be if I pass you through to the helpdesk who'll look into it for you. Of course I'd like to give them some details so if I could just take your name..." "WHAT!?!" The tone is raised, the frustration is building, and who better to take it out on than a voice at the end of a phone? I mean really, it's not a real person there, sat listening and trying to help, just a voice. They don't have a face so it's easy... So it's time to let this person have his rant, about how awful call centres are, about how it's all my fault that he selected the option to come through to the wrong department, about how he hopes that we go bust and that I lose my job. It's not the first time I've heard it, and - while I know he's just frustrated - it can be a little disheartening when I was only trying to help. "I'm sorry sir, I didn't mean to upset you... yes I realise that you've been on the phone to me for half an hour now (it's 08.07 now, but what's 25 minutes or so between friends!?!) and I'd like to get this sorted as quickly as possible for you so, could I just take your name, where you want to go, and the problems you've had? That's great Mr Angry, thanks very much, now I'm just going to pop you on hold for a minute while I introduce the call and then one of my colleague's in the web team can help you. If you need them in the future their direct number is 00000000 and they're open from 08.00-20.00 daily. So there's the first victory, but do you thing Mr Angry will be happy with that, or do you think that he's going to blog about how awful call centres are because of the touch tones and the departments? I know there are bad call centres out there, with a multi-tiered touch-tone (Sky TV, BT and T-Mobile - I'm looking at you!) and staff who can't be bothered. In fact, there are staff that can't be bothered in every job, not just call centres. I know there are call centres who outsource, granted their English is better than my Punjabi, but it can be difficult to understand. But we're not all like that, honest - Ethan K-H , via Email Helpless Centre - 22/6/9When did this happen? I must have missed it.

The few mindless thugs should be ashamed of their treatment of our brave troop - Pam H - via Twitter Retail Therapy! - 9/3/9 Having been 'brung up proper, like', it always bugs me to the core when Generation Y are accused of having no manners or respect for the oldies. Irrespective of the fact that I (sadly) pre-date Gen Y anyway. A little over an hour ago, I was buying a necklace in a giant designer outlet in Grantham, well renowned for its older, posher, ruder clienteleand I stepped around a lady (hereafter known as SOB - Snobby Old Bint) who was dithering over some Pringle socks. As I waited patiently, she stepped around me and joined her friend (SOB2) at the till, so they could pay together. Or so I thought. SOB2 finished her transaction and the cashier began to ring in the Pringle socks for SOB. I was a little peeved and exclaimed "Oh, OK then" to which SOB and SOB2 both turned. I - very politely - pointed out there was, in fact, a queue. SOB replied that she was with her friend. Feeling the onset of Shop Rage, I - again politely - said, "But you're paying separately". Oh dear... SOB chose this moment to square up to me as best she could at more than a foot shorter. (In a raised tone) "Do you really want to stand here arguing about it when I could just be getting on with paying??" she virtually spat in my face. I promise, I am not exaggerating. Taken a little aback, I remained surprisingly calm and feeling brave, looked SOB and SOB2 alternately in the eyes and replied, "Well, no. Because quite clearly you think you're right". SOB turned to the now embarrassed cashier and muttered under her breath about nearly losing a transaction, yada, yada. So I risked a quiet, "It's just a lack of manners" and turned to look at SOB3 and 4, who were in the queue behind me. Neither of them met my gaze. And they had to go for 'a jolly good cup of tea' with her. SOB didn't like this and her tone became a warble as she fannied around trying to find her husband's Gold Card. In a vain attempt to save herself, she rah-rahhhed, "Manners? Oh no, I don't have any of those. I'm far too old for all that". As the second cashier called "Next please" and I walked past SOB, I mumbled, "Well, you've got that right". I swear, I have never been as over-friendly and polite to my cashier... almost like I was trying to recompense for SOB and her vile attitude. I stand firm in my belief that old people still have to earn the respect of the young. It's not a pre-requisite.

A necessary interim action to stimulate the economy true and lets not forget the "middle classes" need to be appeased don't they? Well what of the middle classes who privately rent? what about the under classes who rely on social housing? our rents just go up and up but we never bennefit by interest rate cuts. What is needed is a link to rent to so landlords had to mach the cuts in the rent they charge.. The real reason they dont is because Eliteist Britain wants to drive out the poor rather than support them. Britain would rather attract middle and upper class people from over seas than elevate its own poor andease the burdens on them. Yet the middle classes they bribe for the electoral vote.. Time to right that wrong now i think... Its important to remind all that half of local authority rents from social housing goes to central Government depriving local communities of much needed funds and large hikes in community charge.. If this was corrected social housing rents could fall, council tax could fall and local governments could provide better public services.. maybe those in B+Bs at great expense and those on the streets could be housed properly too.. It's time Government gave back what it steals from the local communities and stop spending our money on making the elite elite... How bloomin comfortable do they need to be?

ASD-on't - 27/1/10 My annoyance with ASDA Home Shopping goes back to when I used them before for the first time. We placed an order with them for our usual fortnightly shopping, thought we would try them instead of our usual Tesco. Things were fine, it was delivered and we were pleased with the service. Was handed over the list of shopping and as always I just give it once over just in case! Well the first thing I come to was not in any of the bags, so I didn't tick it off. I move on to the next and the same again, I then move on to the next one and what a surprise, the same again, not in any of the bags. It worked out they did not send a WHOLE DEPARTMENTS worth of shopping! They completely forget all our fresh groceries! We contacted customer services and thankfully they were willing to send it out the same day and was very helpful. #moanmonday - 25/1/10 Its that #moanmonday feeling! But i have banned twitter posting about how bad busses are! @andrewgalloway_ As it's almost #moanmonday; I've got a filthy cold, am blaming those toddlers! @coughmedicine Two fingers to the little scrotum that broke my car windscreen for fun today. #moanmonday @shelshel Grr. Edinburgh Bloody City Council. Grr! That is all. #moanmonday @gothdetective79 @AngryBritain It's obviously not snowing where you are!! #moanmonday @unlikebefore @grandunifiedpm SWT do make me laugh ..the excuses they come up with for delays ..thats a classic #MoanMonday @angiecatty Perfect 10 - 10/1/10 Top 10 daily annoyances that angrybritain should stamp out in 2010 with it's new found Klout. Road Rage - 08/01/10 Whatever happened to driving courtesy in this country? I've noticed over the last few years that there has been a distinct dip in courtesy on the road. Why is it that it's perfectly acceptable for drivers to abandon their cars over multiple spaces? Why is it that this is invariably in areas where spaces are highly sought after? How is it justified to give no consideration to anyone else using the road? Similarly, why is it that no one can be bothered using an indicator at a roundabout? Coming out of a junction is fair enough, your position tells us which direction you're turning, and ultimately a lack of indicating when leaving a junction is of no potential threat to any other driver. Roundabouts are different. People have to wait for you, so why not take out the ambiguity and stick on your indicator when you're turning and not going straight across. It would make our lives easier and danger-free. Then there's those people that just don't care about etiquette on roundabouts and barge on through without slowing down, or decide to cut the roundabout when you're on it. I think they're called taxi drivers. It's also become acceptable to not dip one's headlights on a motorway. You're driving along at high speed, unable to see properly because someone up ahead coming towards you has their lights on dazzlingly full. "It's ok, I don't need my eyesight to drive." There are a number of other annoying groups of people too: People on mobile phones/people fixing their appearance in the rear view mirror as they drive. You're driving slowly and dangerously. Get a grip - that hairstyle won't look good in a coffin. People who cut blind corners with no consideration to anyone else. Yup, I nearly got killed in this situation, I certainly lost my car in it. People who pull out in front of you with very little distance to spare, nearly cause you an accident and decide to drive really slowly. Then they get to a town and drive at 40mph so you've no chance of ever getting past them. People who are breaking the speed limit on motorways, zoom up close behind you when you're passing another car and start flashing their lights at you to get past. Well done genius, I think you can see I have nowhere to go. Does it really take too much effort to give a little consideration to other road users?- Rich G, Fife Snow - 06/01/10 So we're going to have a little bit of snow. Apart from the obvious comparison between the way we seem to go into a complete tail spin of shocked indignation once snow dares to fall on our green and pleasant land and the cool calm acceptance of the situation by other grown up european countries, we should perhaps prepare ourselves for the banality of BBC and Sky News reporting it tomorrow. These overpaid dull executives and producers fob their customers off ( that's us License payers or subscribers ) with the same news reports re run time and time again all day every day. Tomorrow they will have sent their under-paid junior reporters out to remote car parks and shopping centers to interview any half wit who agrees to talk to them about..... yes the weather ! I can see it now some dim wit out of work ex junkie from Tyneside will be saying 'there's no grit, something should be done, it's a disgrace' ! And we'll see the same dull reports twenty times an hour. We will get to hear that the local bus from Newton Abbot to Barnstable was cancelled, an ambulance slid off the road in Luton, a boy got a snow ball in the eye in Warwick, a dog got lost ,a cat went missing and the old lady in a shoe didn't get her meals on wheels. Please BBC and Sky ask your producers to stop feeding their imaginations with twigs and bricks and try and notice there is a whole world out there that doesn't stop because a bit of snow fell on the UK. Why ? Because my local paper is more interesting and it's free ! - Mike W, London We can't go on like this - 04/01/10Cameron said, 'we cannot go on like this'. His words not mine, uttered today as he launched his parties unofficial election campaign. Later in the Cameron speech as the Tories answer to Mother Teresa and Dan Quale bleated on about the NHS he turned to a big blue and white sign saying NHS and then said " here it is in black and white ". Yes Mr Cameron you really cannot go on like this.- Mike W via Email Its all Greek to me - 03/10/10Every morning I end up ranting at the TV news channels over the disproportionate use of all things Scottish. I realize this may constitute a potential charge of racism against me as I rant on about our Scottish cousins, but that isn't the way I feel about them . They're lovely people with their very own parliament and their very own members of our parliament. I would like us to have some representation in theirs or bar them from ours, the later being the more preferable option ! I am not interested in their country or their football yet every day I am ear bashed by the BBc with a never ending procession of Scottish accents battering me from every direction including the news reporters and the weather forecasters. I turn over to Sky News and I get just another constant stream of adverts all channelling money to Uncle Rupert! No luck there then, so I switch to Sky Sports news only to hear " and in the SPL Hibs beat Hocka noo 75 -1 ! I don't care! Nobody does! Why can't they cover La Liga great football great players, but SPL? Ask any English football mad fan to name one, just one player in the SPL? Ask them who is third in their wretched SPL? Ask them who is the Scottish national team manager ? Nobody could answer your question. Why ? Because nobody cares about it in England . If I lived in Scotland, I would find every news reader and weather forecaster speaking with a Scottish dialect. I would expect the sports news to start with SPL! I would understand it because that's what they do for their people. Talk their own lingo ! On another subject, are you getting just a little bit ****** off with that GO COMPARE **** ! It's every 5 mins on every channel! Apart from the BBC when we git ta hera abooot all thuings scooootish!- Mike W via Email Response: to 'All Geek to Me' - 12/1/10 Saying he aint racist but complaining bout everything scottish on uk tv and wants to have englishman part of scottish parliament seemz he fink everything have to be bout england which ever part of britain you belong maybe he should rant bout getting english parliament and leave all things scottish alone - Gary D, Scotland Chocolates for Dummies - 01/11/10 @AngryBritain why can't Cadburys Roses just print the name of every sweet on their wrappers instead of forcing us to check the box? - @ajswales via Twitter It's really not just you- 15/9/9 Decided to start my own angry site and find you are already up and running. Grrrr. In the last 18 months my anger and frustration has become a way of life. Perhaps It is juvenile dementia. I hate the impotence involved in being a mute bystander as Britian crumbles into decadent chaos whereby people just seem to do whatever they want to whom-so-ever they choose. Is a rant the answer ? Ouch! - 15/9/9 Just got back from an emergency visit with an NHS dentist. Called last night, they got me in this morning. Brilliant! No big deal. I was eating dinner, noticed a jagged edge in the back of my mouth, went to the mirror, and there it was glaring back at me – the mean old half tooth. I’m not sure where half the tooth went either. I’m wondering if that uncomfortable feeling in my stomach last night has anything to do with it…. To be honest. Crying was not an option on the way back from the dentist. But I almost did it. The tears almost came out. The dentist was nice enough, the wait was hardly anything to complain about, the facilities were clean, the pain was minimal. It was just one of those moments when I realized… I’m not in Kansas anymore…or Cali for that matter….or any U.S. state. I'm a foreigner in a foreign land being fixed by a foreign woman who could barely speak English. It was missing that cushy dentist feel I’m used to. The nice greetings. The talk about your day. The questions about how half your molar fell off. You know, things that make you feel human. Not just a number. There are many many places in America where I felt like a number. The MVA. Customs. School Cafeteria. But, somehow, the dentist was one of those places in the states where I could be assured I would be inundated with bad jokes, slightly annoying (but now meaningful) questions, and very nice receptionists. And, I knew I would get a bib, a nice woman slopping up my drool, and new magazines. Yes, magazines! They didn’t even have freaking magazines!! Was this seriously my breaking point? Perhaps I am being too picky. After all, it only cost me £16 to get a temporary filling. (Unlike health care, dental care is not entirely free in the United Kingdom.) I didn’t need any prior insurance to walk into the clinic,and they did take me the next morning. She treated me, didn’t worry about any human interaction, and that saved her time and energy to treat more people in need of emergency services. I totally get it. I just don’t like it. Ok? Am I entitled to accept that it’s something I’m not used to, something that is different, but still say outright – I just don’t like it!!!? And, I was afraid I would need a crown. If that was the case, it would have cost £250. My dental insurance in the states cost me $25 a month, and with a deductible of $10, that would have been all a crown would have cost me. In the end, I probably end up paying a lot more over time in the states. And, I don’t say our system is better at all. On the contrary, I think usually it sucks big time. After all, no insurance = no care. Not a big thinker that one. But, boy what I would give right now for the elevator music in the waiting room, a television to watch the news, or a free toothbrush at the end of my visit. - Megan A-L via Email I want to ride my bicycle - 28/9/9 Ok, so the point of having a motorcycle in London is to A) Lower Emissions or B) Get to your destination a lot quicker than public transport/car?
- Will N- via Twitter - Thanks for the pics Will AB :-) Customer No Service - 30/7/9 I am a 57 year old yorkshire teacher who has lived in London for over 25 years. I have got used to ignorance, lack of courtesy and retail outlets where shop assistants ( is that the polictically correct name for people who sell you things in a shop), being indifferent to your custom and lacking any desire to treat you with anything that resembles an interest in your enquiries or existence ( try Lakeside if you do not believe me). Visitors Pass -28/7/9 As a tax payer, and member of the the human race I am constantly amazed at this country's ability to lay down and die, at our Governments constant ability to award taxes on the common man, to beef up the economy, or as we all know to line their own pockets through dodgy expenses. We face ruin through the mismanagement of our finances, and out deficit is enough to give God erectile dysfunction, and start clammering for the Viagra. And what do we do to aid this? We decide before we send back 1000 immigrants next month that they are allowed full hospital treatment for any ailments they may have so they may arrive at their rather poor economic shores healthy at our expense. Personally the only time I want concentrate on an illegal immigrant is when i'm behind the eyepiece of my rifle. (Easy I saw an East European peddling like hell down my road the other night, and the only reason I didn't strike out and knock the f**** (Oi, no swearing! AB) off was because he was on my bike, and I didn't want to scratch it.
To an illegal - Immigration is the most sincerest form of flattery - Dr Packingwood, via Blogger No Benefit - 17/7/9 The Government reasoning for replacing the Incapacity Benefit system with ESA was supposed to help people back into work who COULD work. Michael Hackedoff - 10/7/9 Just had to write to you and say how unhappy I am at what they are doing to Micheal jackson, I loved him and loved his music and knew that now he has gone the mud slingers would be rising, and how they are! But how cruel they are to publish a picture of what his death mask might look like, can they not leave him alone, what ever life he lead, he was a leader of this music world and was adored and nothing they say will ever make us feel any different to what we feel now.His music will always have people tapping their feet and make them feel alive, they will never take that away from him. Somebody else's war - 7/6/9 On a more serious topic. Firstly, let me say that I fully respect and support our fighting personnel. They go where they are told and do their work to the utmost of their ability displaying great professionalism and extreme bravery to the point of self sacrifice for their comrades and country. Shame our politicians can't spend a few weeks with them, preferably with no flak jackets or helmets. Shamoan - 29/6/9 What an outburst of ridiculous hysteria over the death of a very dubious character! Princess Diana he wasn't. MOAN MONDAY! 29nd June 2009 **NEW* SueB_ @AngryBritain Person/s on the tube with BO holding handrail above head with their arm pit in your face - #moanmonday WillNickson #moanmonday @AngryBritain My Mother-in-Law is still at my house, since Thursday last! AngryBritain RT @OscarTG @AngryBritain A washed up pop star (with questionable behaviour - AB) dies, nothing else in the world is newsworthy #moanmondayabout SueB_@AngryBritain #moanmonday The smell of smoke penetrating my washing, that's drying on the line :| Fair warning would be nice... b****** AngryBritain RT @PhilBowen Tell me why, I don't like mondays.... #moanmonday ? SueB_RT @AngryBritain Hot Weather. F*** off. <<< Ooo someone's tetchy this morning haha Sludz #MoanMonday #MuggyMonday - it's 2 hot. Where's that iceage we were promised in the 70s? PLEEAZE Turn off the gulfstream @AngryBritain Take Care - 16/6/9 What has happened to 'goodbye'? Why do people I dont know, insist on telling me to 'take care'. I haven't injured myself since I was a child and all my senses work very well, thank you. I don't drive with my eyes closed, I look both ways, I am quite capable of spotting lamp posts in my path, my balance is fine and I don't suffer from self-harming. What exactly is it about me that has led you to think I am in danger? What do you think will happen to me as I go about my day? Living in London, the risks from falling boulders, wild animals, pirates or anything else Indiana Jones has had to face are pretty remote as I pop out to the supermarket. So unless you are clairvoyant, please don't demonstrate your faux concern for my wellfare by uttering this platitude, and if I dont know you and have never seen you before, you are not likely to 'see me later'! - Daniel P , London Slumdog Kids - 6/6/9 These kids should be living in palaces with servants. This lousy poor excuse for a film has made hundreds of millions of dollars, nearly all of which has so far gone in to the pockets of the 'luvvies' involved with it. I need a hero - 25/5/9 This is an email to thank the heroes who were in a Wanstead High Street, East London at 10 past 3 today, Friday 22nd May. These four gentlemen were in a black car, stereo on, with the windows open so everyone could appreciate their taste in music, unable to avoid the beat or resist the fine aroma of testosterone. These wonderful people were about 20. They were dressed exceptionally well, short hairr cuts and from their laughter they had a sense of humour which is only given to the select few.. Yes, I have to admit it as a man of 57 on a numder 101 bus these four men were there to teach us all how to behave. So how is it these pillars of society decided it would be fun to throw a water balloon, yes a water balloon. The ones who have the vote and can legally go into a pub. They are the men ( I use that word loosely), who have a gang of mates who share the small brain depending what day it is, the ones who feel it is there right, no obligation, to bully us all into believing that they serve any purpose in society, the ones who think the actor Danny Dyer is well spoken and has a brain, the ones who talk about their respect for their grandparents and their fierce protection of them, the ones who take for granted that what ever they do there will be no punishment apart from a ticking off for causing paper work for the police, the ones who talk about having kids, and the responsiblity of parenthood for at least a month or two, or until another young lady takes their fancy, the ones who went to school and said they didn't get any qualifications becuase the teachers picked on them or more importantly didn't understand them, the ones who are excluded from school and then given an education which reinforces them as individuals, you know the education that says if you act like a nomal human being we will allow you to go on trips, will not force you to do any school work, give them an anger counsellor, tell them they do not have to wear uniform as that will be demeaning and impede their individuality, the ones who behaviour consultants write thesies on how they are disadvantaged and should be shown sympathy. The ones that society have let down, the ones that feel it is necessary to drink to have a laugh or more importantly a fight, the ones who complain to bus drivers when they are caught with an invalid ticket, the ones who always know the word rights but have difficulty with the 6 syllable word responsibilities, the ones who like to run together along the pavement and making people jump out of their way, the ones who ocassionally have job but are regularly sacked for losing the ability to get out of bed or are told to do a task which they feel is below them, the ones who think a STD is something to do with their mobile, the ones that think that anyone apart from guardian readers from the seventies give a **** (NO SWEARING PLEASE - AB) about them. I could go on but I think you can visualise the type of cretin we have to put up with on a daily basis. Why am I so angry? The water ballon they threw into they threw into the bus hit a couple who were well their seventies The look of confusion on their faces said it all. I want to tell the cretins that you are hated by most of society. The people you attacked today in the name of humour are the heroes.They are stronger than you, more intelligent by far than you, are respected more than you, made positive contributions to society than you, seen wars, worked harder than you, been better parents than you, cared for their community better than you and altogether be people that you never be. No doubt you will continue to be the blight on our society and you will continue to bully and have a joke at our expense. However, we all hope that one day sooner rather that later, that what goes around comes around. We as a society will eventually say enough is enough. - David H - via Email Kentucky Out of Luck - 28th April 2009 My angry rant... went to KFC last night, asked for two pieces of chicken ~ snotty assistant told me they had 'no chicken', how can you run out of the only thing you sell !!!!!!!!!!! argggghhhh Paul E - via Email MOAN MONDAY! 27th April 2009 **NEW** lorenzHeil @AngryBritain #moanmonday - The Baftas- & I pay licence fee to watch people pat themselves on the back do I?

Filthy mood on Sat - see my blog for details if you have a mo. Grrr. lonestarshine via Twitter TWEEF! - 2/3/9 @AngryBritain I think your "Beef of the week" is an excellent idea. My beef is seeing the British flag displayed upside down so often.. - ProjectBritain - via Twitter TWEEF! - 17/2/9 @AngryBritain Have to say that my Dear Old England is not what it used to be, very very sad Gerrigee - via Twitter TWEEF! - 16/2/9 Peter Sutcliffe: How can any doctor in his right mind say this man is no longer dangerous after killing 13 women. Life should mean Life DAZ081068 - via Twitter The Last Post - 5/2/9 One thing recently that has occured to me is much of an attitude post office counter staff have. Now I know it's a bum job dealing with the public (get a different one then?) but really, do they have to be so bloody rude. All of them in my experience treat your requests for a stamp, posting a package (eBay, the scurge of PO's), renewing your Car Tax with equal contempt, like they are doing you a favour and have something better to do really. No wonder these places are closing down, I really can't think of a public service organisation more akin to making me feel like c*** more than bloody Post Offices.. - Chris C- via Twitter A Train in the Bottom - 2/1/2009 I am angry, and fed up with Trains. I am a commuter from Braintree to London. On paper, my service (according to National Express) should take an hour. A long time you may think, but this must be one of the miracle trains that appear once in a blue moon. Peeved - 21/2/9 I wrote to you to vent my spleen when our car was stolen. Well, we have at last replaced the car my wife loved, same model but black. Every driver knows the excitement, that lovely sweet pine smell insideand the complete valet cleanliness outside and in. TWEEF! - 17/2/9 @AngryBritain Kettles : why dont they make them to last anymore ? my nan still uses one from the 1940s and it makes alovely cup of tea larrydavidsbbf - via Twitter TWEEF! - 16/2/9 BRITISH PRESS.How many will print the last story of Jade before she dies my guess the same 1's who couldn't wait to feed her to the lions. DAZ081068 - via Twitter Red Tape - 7/2/9 I am a british citizen who is currently waiting for my partner in his home town of odessa in the ukraine. After serving a prison sentence he is now on an immigration hold even though he signed to a government scheme over 4 months ago where he volunteered to return home, in return the home office were supposed to give him time off his sentence and the united nations would provide financial support in helping him resettle in the Ukraine. LIES,LIES,LIES...BECAUSE SOMEONE CANT BE BOTHERED TO BOOK A PLANE TICKET FOR A COUPLE OF HUNDRED QUID HE IS STILL BEING HELD IN PRISON AT THE BRITISH TAXPAYERS EXPENSE! are the british public aware that there are countless numbers of immigrants who want to return home, are BEGGING to return home, that are being held in prisons,and are costing the tax payer thousands of pounds when it would just cost a few hundred to return them home!the government complains that its prisons are over crowded yet there are countless people who dont need to be in there. They even employ so called immigration officials to visit these people and tell them fairytales under the belief that it will reassure them that something is being done. Its b*******! they make something that takes a matter of days to organize take weeks,months,or for some immigrants,YEARS! They got my partner all the way to Heathrow airport,we were booked on the same flight, and at the last moment someone said his paperwork was not in order,THEY HAD WEEKS TO CHECK IT WAS IN ORDER! Thus I found myself in a country all alone not speaking the language and without the love of my life,all because of someone somewhere not doing their job properly! Now I suppose I will have to wait for the f****** snow to clear in England before someone decides its safe enough to transport him to Heathrow, you know, health and safety regulations etc! anyway, I will keep you posted. Joy H - via Twitter Life Lesson - *Beef of the Week* - 18/1/9 My wife and me are sat here at 7:30pm on a Friday night. You would think that we have worked all week... we get up at 6, i have been a secondary school teacher in inner london for 25 years, I now go to work at 7 as a supply teacher at a special school, get home at 5:30pm. I'm 56, i've been in teaching for 25 years, people have thought that I am very good at what I do, but I had a problem with the management structures in schools, (i was the 6th male teacher over 50 the school i worked at, got rid of in a year) epecially the heads and deputy heads who hadn't a clue but were more interested in promoting their friends and ticking boxes, irrespective of how the staff and pupils are treated.
