People who use 'yourself' instead of 'you', or 'myself' instead of 'me/I'. As in "If yourself would like to take a seat over there, then John and myself will be with you shortly" aaaaghh!!!
Then again I don't care where people do that it is still ignorant and irritating.

I ski only with the French, I do not speak their language fluently, but they ski well and I have a trip with the sound turned off providing I do not pass through Meribel.
You know it makes sense.

foxtrotzulu, Ok so you have exhausted all the possibilities of black rubber, how about snow chains? I have heard they can be a lot of fun

I'm def. very iritated by 6'4" men (German I think) who practically elbow me and my son out of the way when it is quite def. our turn - that we have queued for 10 minutes for - to take the odd free places in a gondola on a second station gondola entrance. There is no evidence to the rumor that I physically elbowed them back into line and that the top of my poles my have accidentally collided with them

I hate the fact that the majority of toilets in mountainside restaurants are down bloody stairs (or so it always seems)

When commenting on the use of language, ensure your own is without fault: Who vs. That
Pedantica, I have the lexicon of a sailor and I'm not afraid to employ it.

My new australian sister in law that whinged about everything, had a go at me for not wearing a helmet then sat down in the middle of the piste to put her snowboard on
The OH annoys me, pootling along all week, until she gets the back bottom about something (think it was someone pushing her out the way getting out of a gondola last time), then seems to turn into Lindsay "Incredible Hulk" Vonn and skis like a demon.
