ok, me and DH were on a well deserved one night break at a very lovely spa hotel. Sitting down enjoying dinner when this woman is lead to the table behide me and starts yelling at the staff that this isnt the table she wanted, she had reserved a table near the window and what was the point of reserving tables if she doesnt get it! Then complains to husband, then the the manager and then continues to moan though dinner.
From what I could work out they arrived late for dinner, so table had be given to another person. I really wanted to tell her to shut up and learn to moan about things that really matter and also said to DH "this is such a lovely table, its great not to have to face the wall isnt it" but dont think she heard me as wasnt brave enough to say it too loudly.

Please tell me not all posh people are this rude to others!

awh pag that was one of many. She was legend. I was very fond of her (and more than a little scared but in a good way - think hyancinth bucket with attitude) She's missed.

I have never heard of anyone ever, ever spitting in food either, despite working in catering/service for yonks.

I did hear third hand though about someone rubbing an olive destined for a Hollyoaks actress under his foreskin.Envy
May not be true though.

she sounds brilliant, botty. You must miss her.

I would love to be a great old broad like that one day. I am aiming for Margot Ledbetter.

Pag - I posted a couple of her sayings www.mumsnet.com/Talk/_chat/1022039-Because-I-said-so-amp-other-phrases-you?pg=4

The sight of her when she and my mad mother deided to go in the dark to look at where her new house was being built and she came back looking all dishevelled with ladders in her tights. Pure comedy gold. They fell in a ditch. Pair of total eejits.

But she was quite the kindest most generous person you could've wanted. Terrible gossip. Made THE BEST home made chips in the entire world.
