You should have complained loudly about her bad behaviour and stressed your difficulty in standing, then told her not to ask for sympathy if and when she herself found it more difficult to stand. I find her kind of selfishness and rudeness absolutely appalling (gawd, I'm beginning to sound like Prince Charles, not exactly my favourite person!) My grouse for today - the fat 20 something woman who crashed into me while staring at her bloody smartphone and then told me to look where I was going. Yes, that woman in Melbourne Grove at about 9am today, you know who you are.
