Not being to push to the absolute limit on the bike or the run. I miss that feeling of not knowing whether I'm about to hand my competition their ass on a plate or die trying.

More surgery

Most of the above...(except golf balls...I don't give a crap about them )

Also:

-Litter
-Boys pants half way down their arse
-People not indicating when they can obviously see you waiting
-People who chat in supermarkets leaving their trolleys spread over the isle so you can't pass
-Teenagers
-'Have you had an accident' phone calls
-SKY TV ringing 25 times a week asking if we'll go back to them...NO, we bloody won't!!!!
-Stupid drivers

That's just a few...for now!

Plus light bulb bayonet sockets where the cheap plastic bayonet retainer tabs have perished and broken off, leaving the only option to replace the whole thing. That alone must keep electricians employed across the land

I was behind one of these the other day (indicated at a curve in the road) and I said to my son who was with me "what's the bet he now turns onto the motor way and doesn't indicate at the intersection". Sure enough, that's what happened, we were in stitches.

Having to attend family court proceedings and being the only person beside the lawyers without visible tattoos, a mullet, thongs and mirrored aviator sunnies. Ladies and gentlemen, a long sleeved shirt, a pair of trousers and a hairbrush are your best friends on court day.

Melbourne transport gripes:

• People who STILL touch off on trams
• People who RUB their Myki cards on the reader
• For a bonus prize, people who rub their myki cards on the reader while touching off on the tram!

Hearing Victoria Wood died made me sad. Hearing it was ****ing cancer a ****ing gain made me grumpy.

The other thing that grinds my gears is people who pull off of the hard shoulder on the motorway at zero speed into the first lane of traffic moving at 100 km/h.

I know why they do it - the road rules say you mustn't drive in the shoulder, but that doesn't mean you shouldn't get your speed up before merging back into the flow of traffic. I see this all the time in NSW.

I don't know what "touching off" means. Not-knowing makes me a wee bit grumpy, I have to say.

With contactless systems you put the card on the pad to 'touch' on or off.

If you have multiple zones then you need to 'touch on' and 'touch off' so that it can work out the journey and no over charge you.

Melbourne trams are all in zone 1 though - so it ought to be impossible for them to overcharge you. Hence Mr Grumpy.

However, there can actually be problems, in that if you use a tram to get somewhere, get off without touching off, then go back on the same route, you can actually catch the same tram - meaning your second 'touch on' can be registered as a 'touch off' and so in theory you are riding without paying.

Let's just say there are bigger issues with Myki than touching off ...
