Default Today's Peeve Of The Day, Saturday 1st October.

Good morning peevers and welcome to the new month.

It continues to be absolutely gorgeous here with wall to wall sunshine.

We're moving towrds that time of the year where some of us try to organise get togethers for friends, family or maybe work colleagues around Thanksgiving, Christmas and so on.

Today's peeve;

Trying to get a group of people to agree on a time and place.

Oh yes, it can be tough.
The worst thing is when someone agrees on a time, and shows up vey late!

That's a good one Jezer. Especially when one person tries to change the activity date to a date which suits them, but is not good for most of the other people, and then whines when the majority rules...

That is very difficult to do. Sometimes you get as many suggestions as there are people in the group.

Good peeve, Jezer.
