This is a question Annoying Partners

As a recent divorcee, it would be churlish to reveal what annoys me the most about my ex, apart from that unfortunate business with the crinkle-cut beetroot which tipped us over the edge. So, what winds you up about your significant other? If you have no partner, tell us about workmates. If you have no workmates, improvise with an annoying tramp

One from my sister-in-law.
My brother is a Sharpe fanatic and a sleepwalker/talker. According to his wife, one night after a DVD boxset binge he sat bolt upright in his sleep, shouted "HOLD THE LINE, BOYS!" and then fell back to sleep.

I also have suffered from this. During a flu induced delirium, I was talking about 'long marches' and 'morale'.

I woke up to a very concerned looking girlfriend.

As Another Sharpe Fanatic
I can categorically state that nobody, ever, says "HOLD THE LINE, BOYS" in any of the books or videos...

Sorry for the pedantry, but...

Bugger!
I was thinking of Sharpe... He would have said "lads".

But I bow to you pedantry.

Well, phew.
My brother's mad, but at least he's not mad and imaginiative. That would be a really dangerous combination.
