Was in the supermarket at the weekend, and came across a couple of snooty types and an ordinary person.

First I approached the butcher's counter, where a woman was standing in front of it with a trolley. The assistant came to serve her but she waved him away. So I peered around her trolley, while she didn't think of budging an inch to let me see. Along came a man, similarly dressed in jodhpurs, and started discussing with Annabel (for so she was called) what they might buy. While monopolising the space and keeping everybody else out unnecessarily.

Just along from that was the bread counter. I squinted for what I was looking for, and a woman with a more working-class accent said Can You See Alright There Love? and immediately shifted right out of my way. What a difference in attitude to others.

Don't you hate these champagne socialists, who consider that they are your equal? Give me a right-thinking tory voting-working class type who knows when to move their trolley out of the way.

I'd have just shoved the chav's trolley out of the way. Or are you a mincing nancy?

.. Vote anything but conservative.

Don't be childish - It might just as well have been the other way round.

You don't pay a tiny bit extra for meet and greet parking?

Drive to the terminal doors, hand over your keys and walk in.

Agreed. I did that for the first time on a recent holiday, and it is the dog's. Trying to get 2 kids, pushchairs, luggage, etc onto the transfer bus is a thing of the past.

I suspect the other passengers are equally grateful.

Not just someone: because that's the kind of people the Tory party is for.

PS the "chav supermarket" was Waitrose.

You’ll probably find that they are nuLieBore voters because that’s the sort of people they are. I’ve met loads of ‘em. So damn self-righteous with pretentious symbols of home much they ‘care’, but totally selfish and oblivious of the needs of those around them as the dither and obstruct everyone else. Mostly public sector ‘workers’. Give me chavs anyday.

Really?

I think atW has convinced him of the uselessness of Walter Mitty syndrome and he's going to really try to become a millionaire.

WTF?

Is CUK suddenly the home of Labour voting paupers?


I think it's time for me to move on.

In my defence - Mrs PSB had parked the car on her arrival - I travelled First Class on the Stansted Express on the way out - we flew out on different days - I was just giving her a hand with her luggage before catching the train back to the steaming Metropolis. It was the chauffeur's day off.

It's a northern thing

Ah! Understood.

Are you doing time, by any chance?

I encountered an obese woman with an offensive posh southern accent on the airport parking bus in Stansted, ?

Shops are not places for men. Unless they are electrical/mechanical type shops.

Where T F do they get these people?

Dunno. But they seem to like to holiday wherever I do... the gits.

I encountered an obese woman with an offensive posh southern accent on the airport parking bus in Stansted, After she'd successfully prevented me (or anyone else) getting on and then getting anywhere near the luggage rack for several minutes she announced (several times) that she "didn't walk so well" She was offered several different seats on the bus but after inspecting each one, declined whilst holding us all up for even longer.

Then it transpired that she was travelling all the way around the car park because she'd lost her car park ticket - not her fault of course - it had been taken from her by the check in staff and not returned (yeah right).

She engaged Mrs PSB in a pretty one way conversation "I don't walk so well" (I resisted the temptation to suggest a reduction in pie and cake intake might help), then asked where we were from and promptly announced that she'd never been there, which I regarded as a small blessing.

Soft as tulipe - I'd have punched the twat in the back of the head. I often find that has the desired effect.
