I know we're lucky to live in a developed country so please don't attack me or anyone else for posting on this thread but sometimes things happen that can still be annoying.

So what daft first world problems wind you up?

The water coming into the toilet cistern is very cold atm but the air in the bathroom is warm so condensation forms on the cistern then drips onto the floor making puddles.

My guitar kept un-tuning when the central heating was on so I had to buy a better guitar. Can't believe I'm even saying this!

Also some brown bread in the meantime won’t hurt them.

I can't hear the TV when I'm eating Kettle crisps. I have to find quieter food or pause the TV while I'm eating!

Have you tried sucking them Jane?
When I speak to the Alexa in my kitchen, the Alexa in my dining room thinks I am talking to her as well and they both come on. To add to my irritation, there is a time lapse between the two.

I had to Google Ricard. Does that make me an oik?

I would have to google it (cba) I immediately thought of Jean Luc, but that’s Picard.

Either of us will go outside as it’s cold, and the kitchen bin needs emptying.It’s a battle of wills.
