People who confuse moorhens with coots! Coots are viscious little wotsits, moorhens are even smaller and don't have the SIZE to be nasty (well not with any effect)!
I've often seen a coot (or a small gang of them) take on quite big ducks (one time they saw off a young swan!). The moorhens never seem to bother, they just take their babies out of the way.
Flowers come in too many colours to see the world in black-and-white.
Rant no 1..... b****y banks who thinks its OK to charge £60 for going 10p yes 10p overdrawn have managed to get £35 back but they wont give the rest. I wouldnt use them if I could get away with going back to cash all the time GGGGGGRRRRRR

Himself, who hasn't a clue about the tinternet (total technophobe) standing behind me wanting a "go" on madbid.com, telling me which buttons to press and how it works. Logged on, but logged off again sharpish. Himself bumbles off with face on.
Have been so obsessed with my assignment for my course (as facebookers will know, I eat sleep and breathe it) I have forgotten that there is a life outside of being a student nurse!!

May the road rise to meet you, May the wind be always at your back,
May the sun shine warm upon your face,
The rains fall soft upon your fields and,
Until we meet again, May God hold you in the palm of His hand.
Sat in my house, looking at the blanket of snow covering the garden so it looks beautiful, smelling the butternut squash roasting away in the oven, feeling all nice and warm after just having come back in from walking the hounds round the fields for an hour.........
And knowing that a week today I will be on a plane going back to work, not to return till after Christmas.

Life's disappointments are so much harder to take if you don't know any swear words.
My OH, who just said "Oh, you've done it again" meaning I didn't immediately wash the pot last night after slaving away to make a delicious dinner and now it needs steeped. Well, exactly why is it me who should do the dishes??? Presumably because it was me who dirtied them slaving away to make his tea??? I cook, he can bl**dy clean up

Give a man a fish and he will eat for a day. Teach him how to fish, and he will sit in a boat and drink beer all day
