One of my PET bugbears is along the lines of the Aitch not Haitch threads.
Mine is people who use the pronoun I, instead of me.
'This is James and I at the opera.' No! You wouldn't say, 'This is I at the opera.'
Does my head in.

Pedants' corner
Yes, it's one of my pet hates too. I was surprised and had to clutch my pearls while watching "Topsy and Tim" with a DGC when Dad said "… from Tim and I"! How is that educational, I want to know, and on the BBC too!!
Even worse, on the bit of another BBC programme we saw while waiting for T&T, a girl was telling her pet dinosaur to "lay down"!!! 
I shall now go and LIE down in a darkened room to recover, and perhaps then I may have the strength to send an angry email to the Beeb from DGC and ME.
