It's all part of the service culture that seems to be pervading everything. It's like when you fill out a short questionnaire at the hospital which is trying to ascertain what you thought of the 'service'. It's a Hospital ffs, not a Hotel.seanoconn - gruagach craic!0 -

That gets on my tits too. That and the blizzard of emails imploring me to review my latest online purchases, however trivial / banal. just how much do they want me to write about an inner tube??
And the tendency for every company, whatever they do or sell, to call themselves something or other SOLUTIONS...0 -

I had this on Saturday - "Would you recommend us to your friends or family?" - Yes, I wish my family to become ill so they have to spend 4 hours in a hospital on a Saturday. Eejits who come up with these surveys0 -

And some people take these emails as demands rather than optional. Hence the number of 5 star Amazon reviews that say "I bought this for my husband, he thinks it's great"0 -

Erm...so what's the point of getting a Pokemon thingy by waving your phone around? How does the player benefit?
And is this a craze that is starting off with young men with ironic beards and skinny jeans? If so, come the revolution...

OK, so following a bout of "catching" with a friend's kids while walking the dog I've got hooked. Dang nab it.
However, I've now got a 5 minute window to climb to the top of a hill and back down again, so its pushing my interval training some!Intent on Cycling Commuting on a budget, but keep on breaking/crashing/finding nice stuff to buy.
