Example of How To Be Irritating
At the end of the day, I personally feel that at this moment in time, and with all due to the MPC, that we shouldn’t of cut interest rates. I mean, its’ not rocket science that cutting interesting rates absolutely won’t solve the economic recession. Actually, I think the financial crisis is a complete nightmare, which is fairly unique in the annals of economic history. But, at the end of the day, it’s time we had an integrated response.

Forgive me, I do all that sometimes. I know I shouldn’t!
My pet hate phrases are cutesy abbreviations like ‘Ally Pally’ and ’sarnies’. One hideous time I nearly hung up on a friend after she called suggesting ‘bacon sarnies at Ally Pally for breakie’.
I totally agree…except you shouldn’t have left out “Totally” “Aye”.
