My Pet Peeve

[Peter Laidler]

Pet peeve............ What about a bloke who's read a few books and tells you all about the Bren gun, but more especially about just how accurate it was. And he should know, because his uncles brother who knew someone in the NAAFI in Tripoli who had an uncle who was a cook in ........ And suddenly they're there telling you all about them!

Or the other, that the Sten gun...................., well, it does everything and anything, depending where you are listening.

But I do find that the older I get, the more peeves I get and the easier it is to peeve me. Is this a common theme?
