Was trying to get my buggsie and a basket of shopping through the ownservice till @ Morissons.

It was a tight squeeze, but I managed lol.

I was packing up my wears and singing Inci Winci Spider to my littley and she waswaving her bottle around and a wee bit pf the juice splashed this old dearies white jacket. OOooops.

I apologised a lot. and gave her a babbywipe to help clean it up, but she looked with discust at my lil girl.

She's only 2, dontcha think people shud be more tolerant?

Shud I of said something to her?

I'm right bothered by this 3 hours after the incident.

Sad

'Course it's a joke, it's just a reaction to a bunch of illiterate self centred numbskulls an unusual crowd frequenting MN recently.

empirestateofmind · 06/06/2011 16:51

I hope this is a joke. Unbelievable gibberish.

She didn't say anything to you or your DD. As edam says, you can't always stop your emotions from showing on your face and this woman probably didn't intend to be rude to you. She was just, understandably, a bit miffed to have had her jacket messed up. You did the right thing by apologising. You would have been unreasonable imo if you'd had a go at her for the look on her face. Just try to forget about it and don't take these kinds of things to heart too much, after all it's bound to happen again sometime Smile

I'm more concerned that I didn't notice any of the grammatical mistakes than I am the ladies facial expression. Blush

FionaFriend · 06/06/2011 17:16

'Hunnery' Grin

Not totally surprising other people don't find your kids antics as cute as you do when they stain or damage their property, surely?
