My Arch-nemesis
I lived in fear of a Darth Vader-esque school dinner lady who stood me perpetually at the naughty table for refusing to eat mushy peas. An ordeal made worse after I was caught spooning the accursed veg into her wellies. Who, we ask, has wrecked your life?
Thanks to Philly G for the suggestion

We have crows near my house.
They perch on the roof opposite and make a right racket. But there's one now that's taken to perching on the garden fence right next to the living-room window so it can see in.
Crows tend to reasonably timid and when you get near, they fly away but this one doesn't. Sheryl (as I've named it) will happily watch me in the garden, squawking at me.
It would freak out my missus no end if I could coax it to sit on my shoulder like some sort of evil goth-parrot, but I'd most likely scream like a big girl, flail wildly and run inside.
