I do find it rather rude tho when you're out wiv someone and they spend the whole time txting and then have the cheek to demand to know who has just txtd you and wanting to know the content of said txt. To the point where you are almost wrestling to save your fone.


I respect others space and I would appreciate the same in return. It's not too much to hope for is it?

YES

It must be great "dating" a Young Lady in 2009 as you would always be going out as a "threesome"....you,her and her mobile phone..:))

Have Guys on here got experience of that as it must be "subtle" way on telling the other Party that they are not the most interesting of companions...:(

You are absolutely right KK as it was clearly nothing to do with me...I mean there was Iexplaining,in detail,that Macroeconomists study aggregated indicators such as GDP, unemployment rates, and price indices to enable her to understand how the whole economy functions ans she go!:X

Often "receiving" a call from someone (doesnt have to b a real person) and having a discussion about your evening out, highlighting you would love to be having a conversation with a particular person would be nice but they obviously have things on their mind... blah blah blah can subtly get the point across. It is however, often missed when trying this on a guy... so I'm told :)

I find that rude in itself. I know it may sound a little old fashioned, but prior to mobiles, I don't think many people would do this while out with someone else.


I work in a bar and amazed to find girls (and unfortunately, it's usually girls) meeting up for drinks and then spending the whole evening texting EVERYBODY else, it seems.... Just stay in and text!

There you go KK, it is always the girls texting.

"Nearly" always those lovely Ladies!


I have noticed an amazing thing over the last few years.Try it in your area.


At random observe 50 Ladies(say 25 or under) and see how many(at any moment) are checking their phones or using them in some way like Phoning or Texting.If its NOT 70% I'll be astonished.

The joke is when there are 3 Girls walking along(say 16 or over) most times 1 or 2 WILL be on the phone or fiddling with it..


Try It.It works.:))

I suppose one way to look at it would be at least this young girl openly demonstrated to those around that she was perhaps not enjoying the evening as much as she should have (going by the general comments already expressed on this thread) rather than being deeply engaged in conversation for the whole evening where only one of you is taking it in... and that's the one whos speaking! ;-)

    • I've never got Christmas pudding. The only times I've managed to make it vaguely acceptable to people is thus: Buy a really tiny one when it's remaindered in Tesco's. They confound carbon dating, so the yellow labelled stuff at 75% off on Boxing Day will keep you going for years. Chop it up and soak it in Stones Ginger Wine and left over Scotch. Mix it in with a decent vanilla ice cream. It's like a festive Rum 'n' Raisin. Or: Stick a couple in a demijohn of Aldi vodka and serve it to guests, accompanied by 'The Party's Over' by Johnny Mathis when people simply won't leave your flat.
    • Not miserable at all! I feel the same and also want to complain to the council but not sure who or where best to aim it at? I have flagged it with our local MP and one Southwark councillor previously but only verbally when discussing other things and didn’t get anywhere other than them agreeing it was very frustrating etc. but would love to do something on paper. I think they’ve been pretty much every night for the last couple of weeks and my cat is hating it! As am I !
    • That is also a Young's pub, like The Cherry Tree. However fantastic the menu looks, you might want to ask exactly who will cook the food on the day, and how. Also, if  there is Christmas pudding on the menu, you might want to ask how that will be cooked, and whether it will look and/or taste anything like the Christmas puddings you have had in the past.
    • This reminds me of a situation a few years ago when a mate's Dad was coming down and fancied Franklin's for Christmas Day. He'd been there once, in September, and loved it. Obviously, they're far too tuned in to do it, so having looked around, £100 per head was pretty standard for fairly average pubs around here. That is ridiculous. I'd go with Penguin's idea; one of the best Christmas Day lunches I've ever had was at the Lahore Kebab House in Whitechapel. And it was BYO. After a couple of Guinness outside Franklin's, we decided £100 for four people was the absolute maximum, but it had to be done in the style of Franklin's and sourced within walking distance of The Gowlett. All the supermarkets knock themselves out on veg as a loss leader - particularly anything festive - and the Afghani lads on Rye Lane are brilliant for more esoteric stuff and spices, so it really doesn't need to be pricey. Here's what we came up with. It was considerably less than £100 for four. Bread & Butter (Lidl & Lurpak on offer at Iceland) Mersea Oysters (Sopers) Parsnip & Potato Soup ( I think they were both less than 20 pence a kilo at Morrisons) Smoked mackerel, Jerseys, watercress & radish (Sopers) Rolled turkey breast joint (£7.95 from Iceland) Roast Duck (two for £12 at Lidl) Mash  Carrots, star anise, butter emulsion. Stir-fried Brussels, bacon, chestnuts and Worcestershire sauce.(Lidl) Clementine and limoncello granita (all from Lidl) Stollen (Lidl) Stichelton, Cornish Cruncher, Stinking Bishop. (Marks & Sparks) There was a couple of lessons to learn: Don't freeze mash. It breaks down the cellular structure and ends up more like a French pomme purée. I renamed it 'Pomme Mikael Silvestre' after my favourite French centre-half cum left back and got away with it, but if you're not amongst football fans you may not be so lucky. Tasted great, looked like shit. Don't take the clementine granita out of the freezer too early, particularly if you've overdone it on the limoncello. It melts quickly and someone will suggest snorting it. The sugar really sticks your nostrils together on Boxing Day. Speaking of 'lost' Christmases past, John Lewis have hijacked Alison Limerick's 'Where Love Lives' for their new advert. Bastards. But not a bad ad.   Beansprout, I have a massive steel pot I bought from a Nigerian place on Choumert Road many years ago. It could do with a work out. I'm quite prepared to make a huge, spicy parsnip soup for anyone who fancies it and a few carols.
