just wanted to blow off steam after a brief shopping trip to Croydon.
No doubt some of you are thinking 'more fool you' or (more likely 'daft b*gger' ...
If you are of a nervous disposition please look away now!
When did prams become offensive weapons to be used to force the way through queues without looking at whom you are hitting?
Why do husbands have to stand in doorways when waiting for their wives (tip move three feet to the side and you wont get pushed out of the way). Same with leaning on pay points in House of Fraser.
Why do teenage girls squeel that its cold and wet yet are only wearing ballet pumps, tights, tutu skirt and an off the shoulder t-shirt and cardigan?
Why can't same girls make up their mind in the station coffee shop? 'well if you have a mocha then I'll have one but if you dont then i want a latte .... but if I have a mocha I want it skinny but with extra cream' (Nice lady behind counter has served at least three people in the interim and gave me the smile of exasperation)
People with backpacks who complain about how heavy they are one minute yet forget they have one on when they try and squeeze past. Yes I will elbow you!
Who decided that the queue for cash machines should cross the pavement rather than being along the line of the bank wall? Why do said queuers complain when people try and walk through?
Parents, they are your children and its YOUR fault if your little one decides to run around and gets hurt. Don't theaten the little old lady your child ran into with the police because your little darling cut his head on ladies basket. Good for little old lady with responding 'and i'll call the social services'!
No dear, that little pile of boxes I have my hand on are the things I am going to buy, said hand is there to stop other people swiping my carefully chosen items.
Why do parents with prams think its ok to block the aisles when having a conversation, or use the escalator then complain that was not entirely safe because they couldn't be bothered to go and find the lift ... or block the doors of said lift in some sort of mexican stand-off with other prams.
No its not acceptable to let your friend push into the queue because you are being served. It's also not acceptable to shout at till lady when she tells your friend to go to the end of the queue.
No dear I don't wanted to be squirted with perfume (this is some daft woman not one of the store perfume pouncers)
Owners of Allders - NOT a good idea to move departments around in the run-up to christmas.
Escalator blockers should be shot !
Rant over !
Feel much better now !
