What do you find annoying?
1. Tourists asking me "do you live here then?" (no I fly home to England every night & back in the morning... obviously)
2. Or "do you like it here?" (no I hate it, that´s why I´ve been here for 5 & a half years)
3. Chewing gum or dog sh*t on the pavements
4. Shop assistants who talk on their mobile to their mates for 5 minutes, pretending not to notice you´re waiting to pay &/or hopping up & down late for work
5. Fake wood, in general
6. Uncomfortable chairs or ones with bendy legs, same goes for inferior tables
7. People who drag their feet
8. The dog who pees on my blackboard every day before I arrive (when I catch you... grrrr.....)
9. Litterbugs
10. Finding a perfect pair of shoes in a shoe shop & finding out my size is the only size NOT in stock!
etc etc....

We must have popular-sized feet, you would assume they would get MORE pairs of shoes in the most common sizes. I am a 5 and a half British, 39 European.

1. People asking me why I moved to the Netherlands.
2. People asking me if I like it here.
3. People who chew gum loudly so that I have to hear every chomp, pop and snap.
4. People that walk on the bike path. (Watch out I don't move over when I see you.)
5. Children that are allowed to be loud and run wild in public.

I can empathise with number two. I´ve been in Gran Canaria six years in May. Which is kind of a long time. And people hear that then ask if I like it here!!!! I mean, if I didn´t would I STILL BE HERE!!!!???
