Who DOESN'T annoy you?

Who doesn't annoy you?

As the opposite of my 'Annoying People' poll, again I have repeated those close to you (added children) plus myself (irony) and have selected well-known public figures who I presume it would be difficult to be annoyed by. Again one is limited by the 10 options system constraint and finding a UK politician presented a challenge!

With those close to you, one obviously sets aside the odd disagreement or out of character behaviour that may happen once in a blue moon.

None of the nine annoy me although I sometimes get annoyed with myself.

The Queen, Delia and in his way, Dennis Skinner, are national treasures!

Whoops - the M-I-L DOES annoy me (and most of humanity too who have had the ill-luck to meet her). "I hate him/her" and 'Get a Life' our common expressions from her mouth.

You should have included Cliff Richard on the 'annoying list'. He's one of my pet annoyances.

MM does not annoy me. That does not mean I agree with all his posts, and I would imagine nor he mine. But I have learnt more about PandO from his posts than anybody else and he certainly livens up any forum.

How's this for a controverial opener?

Prince Charles doesn't annoy me.

I think he is OK. Given the gene pool, and the way certain sectors of the media view him, (Lets be honest, much of the media these days is akin to the Beano and the Dandy, but perhaps I malign those two in saying so) I think Prince Charles has done well.

I think he's okay too.

His second wife is also the model of discretion. An excellent role model for the younger royals and those who marry in to the Royal Family, bested only by HM The Queen herself

Actually, I should have said "all of the above"
