Went to the theatre last night and had fairly good seats.
There were three empty seats in front of us and I joked to my other half 'What's the betting someone really tall will sit in front of us'
True to form, three women turned up, two were short and the third was tall (ish) and sod's law, the tallest one sat smack bang in front of us. But that's not the worst bit. She kept swaying her head back and forth, from right to left. It was very distracting.
I put up with it for the first hour then ended tapping her on the shoulder and saying, "please can you stop moving your head so much, it's distracting!"
She glarered at me, so did her daughter, but she did stop. Which is just as well, because there were still two hours to go
What the heck is wrong with people? I always try to be still so as not to annoy the people behind. But some people don't care.
Was I wrong to say something? I don't think so
Do you ever get annoyed by people at the theatre or cinema?
