'Old' people who slyly push in front of you in a queue ('because they're old'), act oblivious to everyone else who's patiently waiting and then look sooo pained, if you so much as murmur an objection.
They've got just as much time as the rest of us, if not more ....... but clearly far fewer manners.
It happened twice to me the other day in Aldi as I was juggling my money in one hand, with 2 celeraics and a swede in the other. Then they opened up another till and a seventy-something year old sprinted from the back of the queue, past at least 6 of us who were ahead of her, to grab pole position.
A 4-minute miler if ever I saw one, but at least she'd been saddled with a permanent expression of the archetypal bulldog chewing a wasp!
