Officially grumpy old women?

Does this qualify me as a grumpy old woman! Have just been into a local Marks and Spencer.
A non service dog in the food hall! , a little boy on a scooter in mens wear, and hardly any tills open!
Is it you early for a G and T!

Just a thought ... sometimes it's hard to know if a dog is a 'help' dog or not ...

How about children who persistently kick the back of your seat on planes?
Yes we all know children get bored on flights but that’s no excuse to cause annoyance to other passengers.

This behaviour was a pet hate of our neighbour. He told me once that he didn’t bother mentioning it to the parents, he just stood up, turned round and in a very clear firm voice told the child to stop the kicking.
He said it always worked.
I guess he was lucky not to have some irate father giving him a mouthful!
