I was saying the same to my parents. We have just returned from a weeks hols in Spain and all the Brits were queing at the bar - all the other nationalities sat at a table and expectected waiter/waitress service.

I personally prefer waiter/waitress service.

We live in Germany and nobody queues here, they get their elbows out and it is every man, woman and child for themselves.

DH thought it was hysterical the first time he saw a British bus stop queue, half of the queue under the bus shelter, the rest of them standing like drowned rats in the rain.

Any particular reason for you being annoyed a the British queue fetish today?

Maybe we should just get over ourselves and make a dash for it like our EU relations
