......mmmm that can happen to a sleep deprived individual, brains rolling around in the head like two fragile marbles, and the sounnd of a crying baby ringing in your ears even when the things alseep.......your lucky she did not drop the nappy in your handbag !


Either some quality piss-taking or proving my earlier point, I lack the subtlety radar needed to distinguish.



To the critics above: seriously, what's wrong with using the forum for this kind of stuff? Never had one of those moments? A moment where something happens and you think you're entitled to be outraged, but the other party seems totally disinterested, so you start a thread to test the waters and maybe get some reassurance that you weren't being unreasonable.


I think it's exactly what the forum is for, if that's what you need it to be for at that moment: all things to all men an' that.

I think you are well within your rights to have a little moan on here and anywhere else you fancy BN5. Hopefully, if this lady or one of her friends spots this thread, she may think about doing it again. Therefore you've done her a favour in the long run.

AQre you trying to imply something Bob?

I have no problem with this at all. So the woman changed a baby's nappy.


And?


I agree with *Bob*, if you had a problem yoy should have said something to the woman at the time. I much prefer people who are upfront and confrontational.


Honestly, people are so anal in this country. :)

I get annoyed with myself for reading drivel like this. What's wrong with me!?


Honestly, 3 pages devoted to a woman changing a nappy in a bar - did you think about calling the police?


I thought words like "vile", "horrific", "abhorent" were reserved for things like, I dunno, genocide maybe?


Get a life people.

Quite agree jrthomas_uk. Can't believe the brouhaha over some woman changing her baby's nappy on a table in an eatery, and as you rightly point out, the hyperbolic language used to express horror over....what is fundamentally not that big a deal.


So a baby's bum was on display. Frankly, I can't be @rsed to add anything more on the issue.

jrthomas was the one that brought genocide into the discussion, if that's not hyperbolic I'd like to know what is. Perhaps you could advise exactly how many people need to have died before people on an internet forum are permitted to express any disatisfaction.


A person changing a shit-filled nappy in a place where people eat is gross bad manners and bad hygiene. Is it Chernobyl? No. It's just a few posts on a forum.

Are you joking? The police are too busy dealing with door to door beggars..


I think this an issue for our local MP to deal with.

LOL!


I'd have just said 'are you taking the piss?', and then my wife would have criticised me for being rude, and then I'd have made some comment about 'taking the shit not the piss', and then the rest of my day would have been about me being rude in public and nothing to do with whether it was okay to unload baby crap in public.

The problem I have with this is the Mother is obviously one of those middle class types dragged up from the gutters of London and blessed with the decorum of Roy Chubby Brown. However this is ED and self self self is the order of the day. I was having a coffee in Cafe Nero where I witnessed a mother breast feeding, although natural, I would prefer not to see that sort of thing whilst sipping a tall one, and I remember thinking, why not express at home when you are going out?. I did choose to ignore it but my 5 year old son was fascinated by the whole debacle.


Is there such a thing as middle class low life?.


Only joking, or am I........

Mikecg, so you would prefer not to see a woman breastfeeding while you are having your coffee in Cafe Nero? And you then clarify that by saying:-


"why not express at home when you are going out?"


"Is there such a thing as middle class low life?."


I find such comments really quite pathetic and rather offensive, frankly.

    • I've used just about all the locally available supermarkets for deliveries over the years, and I now  use Waitrose for deliveries, for various reasons. They have a good range of the things I eat, their food is good quality and their "essentials" range is generally good value (except the tissues, which suddenly became so thin as to disintegrate immediately. I was mainly buying them for the nice plain boxes, so now I just put other tissues into the old Waitrose boxes 🤣) It is very rare for something I've ordered to not be available on the day. Their delivery drivers  are genuinely friendly and helpful. Their customer service is very good. On the rare occasions I've had issues, they have refunded me without quibbling. They often have special deals on some of the things I buy often, so I stock up when they are cheaper. I do occasionally compare prices with other supermarkets, and overall I really don't think Waitrose is more expensive, but obviously they might be for things I don't personally buy. I absolutely hate Sainsbury's, would use Lidl for some things but they don't deliver, Iceland has a very small range of things I eat, and I can't remember why I don't use Tesco or Asda any more. I recently checked out Ocado because there was some offer which seemed good value, but they just didn't have enough things I wanted to buy to make it worth using the offer. M&S don't deliver ( to the best of my knowledge) but in any case they seem to be still badly suffering from the recent hack into their system. Apologies, I have just remembered this thread is about shopping at actual physical stores, but probably many of the issues are the same.
    • Since I am of a certain vintage now, not sure if what I am going to suggest is even still around but here goes… use to be able to buy “dummy/mock papers on line and also had mini synopsis of Shakespeare plays specifically covering students wanting to gain a better understanding of play before taking mocks/ exams. Only know this as many many moons ago, struggled with English Literature and Language and this was the avenue-my parents went down. Also was at this point in my life, educated abroad as part of my fathers job.  
    • Love your comment about “shoehorned” - put a smile on my face..! As for comment about “Little Waitrose” ummmm - never really thought about it. Personally, could not care less. But guess Sainsbury Local and Tesco Express are to you more acceptable.. Ultimately, when I think about it, I actually don’t care what they call themselves - been lured by partially branding and partially convenience and what they offer in groceries.
