I get bored with obsessive collectors. It's wonderful your collection of every and any Harry Potter/cat/coffee mug..... related item in the entire world gives you pleasure. Please don't feel the need to share your enthusiasm and gleefulness over every purchase with me.

Clutter irritates me. I'm neither a clean or tidy freak but piles of newspapers, mail, dirty dishes (I don't mean the odd glass or coffee mug) in the sitting room, especially if piled on the floor, makes me want to sweep it all into a bag and drop it in the bin.

I choose not to be around very negative people. I'm a great listener, a supportive friend.... but if you make no effort to see the good in each day or any day.... well, it exhausts me.

Don't bitch constantly about your grown up kids. Either support them with good grace or stop enabling their behaviour. Or.... enable their behaviour and whine to someone else about it. It's ok if you forget because I will remind you.

I won't allow anyone to smoke in my home or car. No exceptions. That said, I won't bitch about how much you smoke or nag you to stop. That's your business. No snogs though
