The other day there was a woman on her phone on the other side of the road... shouting down her phone so I could hear all the detail of her woes. She might as well have been standing next to me with a megaphone!
Wobbling Apr 2017 2:59pm, 7 Apr 2017 4,792 posts	Quote Pin Wobbling While having breakfast at a very nice restaurant on Sunday morning, an elderly man sitting with his family, at the other end of the room, was having a horribly loud phone conversation that started with 'well I haven't passed solids since Thursday...' Grim. He then went on to detail how much pain he was in. Evidently not enough pain to keep him at home, or at least away from people who were eating.

JK chameleon Apr 2017 2:07am, 8 Apr 2017 12,165 posts	Quote Pin JK chameleon Totally agree with you Carp about that bloody Oral B advert. Why does she need to point at the toothbrush? Why is she gurning into the camera at every opportunity? What the hell does 'inspired by dentists' actually mean? Ugh. I bet she's as modest as my downstairs neighbour. He presents programmes on some obscure Freeview TV channel and has been an extra - sorry, background artiste - in a few soaps. And not an ounce of humility about him, the smug twunt.
