Right now, suspected kidney stones.
I feel for you, sir. I've been a sufferer for 5 years now, and when it's bad it's not the most fun I've ever had. Are you waiting for X-Ray results or something?
Other than the stones, this really gets on my gurn:
When using the motorway or dual carriageway, driving at 65mph (with cruise control), approaching a car that's going 55-60mpg, pulling out into the next lane to overtake, only to find them speeding up to about 70mph. So I have to then pull back into the slow lane behind them. The same thing applies to when someone overtakes, then slows down to slower than I was going. Morons.
Yeah waiting on results of a blood test and a letter about an x-ray.
Actually that leads onto another Annoyance.
Why is it when the doctor is having a poke and a prod and say "Let me know if this is sore" they hit that tender spot, you grimace hold back the swearies say "Yip thats the spot" about 3 octaves higher than your normal pitch they then go "Just there?" whilst applying even more pressure. Move on a bit, check the other side then go back to the original spot and give it another good old poke. Then proceed to tell you it's a bit tender around there.
Like if they hit the spot the first time, second time to make sure fair enough . Do they think it will be third time lucky and you will be magically cured?
Why tell you that's the spot that's a bit tender? Is that not obvious by the way you have now curled up into a ball?
AND
People who park on the footpath. I am seriously fed up having to walk on the road taking the kid to and from school. We couldn't even use the patrol man today because some knob had totally blocked the footpath beside his patch, so if we crossed with him there was no room to walk down the path we would have had to walk on the road.
Oh and also
Horsie folk. We are near an equestrian shop, they are a big offender of the above they usually forget the twin axle trailer is wider than the car pulling it. . Plus they come into the avenue to turn and don't give a fairy cakes who or what they nearly wipe out with their bad reversing. Then the odd one parks up, they must stay a while in the shop and think it's acceptable to let the horse out of the lorry and have a good peaky on the green and footpaths and leave it. Sure £80 fine if I let the dog take a dump and I'm sure if he was to do it around their way the dog warden would get a call but it's okay for a horse to leave a comparative mountain of the stuff.
