We love Birds cobs and whenever we visited the daughter she’s asks we take half a dozen packs costing £12:60 but funnily we never get the money offered to pay us back.

They barge past me to place their order & as they get to the counter I say excuse me. Oh are you in a queue they pipe up my reply well if one person constitutes a queue then I am that. So they turn round & stand behind me giving me a few stares I’m sure. Bloody rude folk I can’t abide ‘em.
Same here.
Went to the post office yesterday to send something out. Had a mask on BTW . A customer at the counter was just finishing her transaction so I held the door open for her. She walked towards the door but then the PO assistant called her back as she'd forgotten something. I'm still holding the door open. She went to collect her forgotten item and took about half a minute doing it. I'm still holding the door open. She finally walks to the door and walks through the doorway without any word to me.
I hope all her parcels in life are underpaid and overweight
Don’t even get me talking about holding doors open for ladies I’d say 80% push past you without a by or leave as if you are some paid lacky. Seriously manners cost nothing but sadly society doesn’t care any more. I will continue to hold doors open because occasionally a lady will smile & say it’s nice to see there’s still some gentlemen.around

Spot on, me too. The thank-you always makes it worthwhile.

Well I’m now 3 visits in to seeing a physiotherapist , Oscar so now I’ve set myself a strict regime four times a day of gentle exercise of stretching & pulling. Obviously it’s too soon to feel if there’s any difference yet. So 06:30 - 10:30 - 14:30 & 18:30 I can be found hopefully finally getting some pain relief. It’s hardly Mr Motivator stuff but I’m actually enjoying it.
