Group of 7 in small local cafe, shouting and spoiling others meals

[T33andMO]

I'm out with OH for lunch at a small local cafe and there is a group of 7 in here all talking at full volume, shouting over one another, exaggerated laughs, you know the type of thing I mean.. it's very "look at us"

There is an elderly couple sat behind us looking miserable as they can't hear one another speak.

I couldn't hear what the waitress was saying when giving my order.

AIBU to find this fucking annoying and rude?

It was the type of conduct you'd expect from a group of 'lads' at the pub watching the football, not a group of women in a cafe at midday.

It was very "look at us, all loud and confident" dominating the (small) space.

I can honestly say hand on heart I've never made such a spectacle of myself, anywhere, not even at the pub or when with friends.

Just no need.

Two choices @T33andMO

1. Speak to the manager and say you are trying to enjoy your lunch could you speak to that mob over there and shut them up.

or

1. Call SWAT tell them there are a group of 7 twats together and get them all shot.

Personally I would get off your phone and go for the first approach but then I am a nice person.

Have a nice day.

aw, OP. Now you've ruined it with the casual sexism. I was sympathetic up to then.
