Get one of those pump action waterpistols or keep a hose nearby, they soon get the message.
If you want to go really hi tech, a pir activated sprinkler system.

Getting emails off other web designers, saying they saw my website and asking if I would like an improved web presence. What part of my web design portfolio did they not understand? Maybe they were confused when I said I was a web designer and that my domain name has "website design" in it? Aiming their business at web designers...hmm....small flaw in that marketing strategy really....

Where I live there are quite a few cats... which is fine. But do they they really need to use my front garden as a litter tray????? I can't stand the fact that cats roam about doing what they want where they want. I don't have pets so why should I clean up after other peoples?... And now I think someone is letting their dog join in. I'm so annoyed with it that I'm seriously going to try and get a letter published in the local free paper so that all my neighbours can read it. I'm even on the verge of putting up a sign on my front lawn saying 'THIS IS NOT A LITTER TRAY!'.

Wow... I sound like Victor Mildrew, but I feel so much better now.

I know what you mean and I even have a cat of my own! We have a catflap, which someone else's cat keeps using to come in my house and I am a cat lover but I just want to throttle this particular cat as it comes in my home, p**ses up stuff (literally) and eats my cat's food! I can't even do the magnetic collar and flap thing as my cat won't wear a collar. I've had to shut the catflap at various points like overnight, but this isn't great as my cat can't go out! and there's nothing you can do about someone else's goddamn cat

PlusNet have me in a blind rage at the moment. My "broadband" is under 30Kb/s. They've acknowledged that it's a BT line fault and so I invited them to ask BT to fix it. To date, they are still refusing.

This news is now on 5 of my 300+ networks

I wonder who will break first?...

AAAAAAAAAARRRGH! Abbey putting a limit on the amount of transactions I can make with my card per day! They keep blocking the bloody thing!

Yep, I got a call off a photographers agent the other day trying to get me to use him on a job. "Ummmm... but I'm actually a photographer." "Really?" "Yeah now F**CK OFF, and next time, check your facts before you waste my time."

You know what else? Calls from people who can barely speak English (not their fault - the fault of the idiots who employ them to do cold calling) asking "Can I speak to the business owner/person who deals with the telephones/ toilet cleaner or whatever." And they come through to my HOME number. Usually I just hang up. If they're lucky.

And another thing... lol. The reason I get these calls is because BT were kind enough to allocate us the number of a recently bankrupt spring manufacturer. Yeah thanks for that. I love fielding calls from people trying to sell metal presses and stuff. And they get so confused when I tell them there's no business on this number. "But... I dialled the right number... it's in the phonebook..." Please f*ck off.


Ahhhh.. that felt good. Back to work.
