    People who use the term vinyl when what they're actually talking about are records or LPs :-)

    Default Pet Hates........

    People who are 'going for a coffee'.

    They don't 'go for a tea' they go for a cup of tea. Coffee comes in cups so you're not 'going for a coffee' you're 'going for a cup of coffee'. Is that clear?

    Default Pet Hates........

    The increasing, rather annoying tendency for people to begin every sentence with 'so' when they've been asked a question.

    Also 'can I get' when they mean 'could I have' 'may I have' 'can I have'.
