to think this bloke was an arse.

[HalfMumHalfBiscuit]

Finally I've got a chance to go on AIBU.

Yesterday DD and I were in Holland and Barrett buying tea and DD was generating a bit of a crowd being 8 weeks old and all.

I mentioned to one of the nice ladies cooing that DD had just had her first jabs this morning when some dreadlocked man leered over and said 'Don't let her have any immunisations whatever you do. Its all a conspiracy (man)'

I did this and left the shop.

1. who is going to benefit from the conspiracy? and
2. what business is it of his to go around preaching to mums anyway. and
3. I wish I had said 'Oh shut up. You arse!'

YANBU. He should have kept his views to himself. But fucking shitty vaccination thread by stealth.

Do you think it was his daft idea of a joke?

'some dreadlocked man leered over'

Well aren't we judgy judgy?

Definitely on drugs if he had dreadlocks {DM face]
Oh and on benefits, with 8 children by different mothers.
He'll be on Jeremy Kyle next week.

I was going to add a LOTMulledWine.

I should have asked him what the conspiracy was.

Do people do vaccination threads by stealth? Sorry. I have another AIBU which is nothing to do with vaccinations and tenuously about hospitals...

this will become a vaccination thread HMHB, so I'll get me coat

FWIW
A few of us have vaccine damaged children. As a result vaccination threads and their wide range of strongly felt opinions can end up with very upsetting posts.
Therefore MN kindly provided a vaccination topic so some of us ( like me ) can avoid them - especially a difficult times of the year.

If vaccination is in the title I have the chance to avoid it if I need to.

You have a baby now, you will attract all sorts of nutters who feel entitled to an opinion. dreadlocked men ranting about consiricies won't be the worst of it, I had one apple cheeked old granny tell me "Every time my boy cried, a dashed a jug of ice water over him. He soon stopped that nonsense!"

hello pag -come back to hully's mad thread.......

Sorry pagwatch, will know next time.

Try this instead.

nothing just a description to add to the story

No problem HMHB.

I'll just hide it.

I wear Dr Martens, almost exclusively, have shockingly purple hair, patchwork clothes that I probably made myself and lots of very dangly jewellery.

Watch out when you're next in your health food shop, I may lecture you on vaccination conspiracies.

People like to make comments, some people like to make jokes, others are genuinely passionate about things and feel compelled to share with you. Who knows what category this man and his non conformist hair fell into. And frankly, who cares?

How do you get anything done if you generate crowds wherever you go btw?

HMHB must have an exceptionally beautiful baby (though obviously not as beautiful as either of mine were )

Hey Jamie
it was too mad for me last time I glanced. Is it still taking place on the set of Wuthering Heights ?

It was a very small crowd.

pag I believe so, though since I have not read Wuthering Heights I am winging it a bit .....

perhaps he just believes in homoeopathic remedies or grows his own drugs of every kind

DD is v cute (if I do say so myself) and its a small town with a high OAP population and they all like to have a look at the ickle tiny baby. They remind me of my gran (sniff) so I let them have a coo.

HMHB Just don't let one of them touch her and become outraged about that ......... (not saying you would, but it has been known to crop up on AIBU)

Pag and Jamie! Moonlighting in other halls! No good will come of it.

I think the dreadlocked leerer would fit in well.
