To the lady in the shoe shop today I'm a bit miffed still AIBU?

[pongysticks]

I'm still l what do you think - DS and I waiting in shoe shop at the till and I gave him a pile of coins to pop in the whizzy round charity boxes, he was having great fun with 5p's and 2p's he dropped his last one and before he picked it up a lady sitting close by pointed it out to her son approx 5, her son scampered over and picked it up, so I thought arhh that's lovely. So he looked back at his mum and she said "yes in the box" and nodded, so he took the coin and popped it in the whizzy fun charity box... My DS was a bit as it was very clearly dropped by him only seconds before.

Its not like he pocketed it and he did put it in the charity bit so that's fine, but i guess if that of been me I would of said - Oh pick that up for the little boy - NOT pick it up and use it for your go in the box..Not the end of the world but I thought it was rude!

It's HAVE.

I would have said.

His mum could have dug.

He wouldn't have said.

I would have done."

Really, you felt the need! Well done, you have shown how superior you are..

The above was rude ( it is fine if you want to give a toss about grammar, but just plain rude to point out others "mistakes") and the lady in the shop was rude.

Rudeness abounds it seems.

OK STOP!!! I'm not worried about grammar, spellings etc - I have struggled with both all of my life it's not a big deal to me at all - I'm happy with my lot So thank you (note with a space)

I've concluded, thank you for posting that I wasn't going mad when I thought and that the lady was being rude.

Yup. iPhone. Bloody autocorrect. I still know could of is shit grammar.
