Is it bad manners? Noisy (or nosey) neighbours? Crude dress? Expensive groceries? Rainy days? I know this isn't an overly positive toipc, but as is life, we're only human and sometimes things just tick us off...

As with most people, it is tailgaters, P-platers who think they can drive better than those who have been driving for 30 years. But my biggest problem lately is the lack of manners. Not just in the younger generation, but I have noticed that even a lot of those in the 60-70 age group seem to have stopped using "please, excuse me and thank you". I hate to think what this country will be like in 20-30 years if there are no manners being used anymore and rudeness rules.
