Yap yap yap yap yap yap yap yap yap yap yap yap yap yap yap yap yap yap!

One couple a few rows behind me actually talked ALL the way through Tinker Tailor tonight, despite several death stares from me. Bloody ridiculous - I mean come on dear - if you have to continually ask your husband what is going on and who is who you really shouldn't be allowed out in public. So much for care in the community!

Grrrrrrr!

We had the same problem last night at Senna at The Trocadero when a couple in the back row talked throughout the film and even when lots of people told them to SHUSH they ignored them all. Plus lots of latecomers who spent time getting drinks even when they're late but couldn't manage to turn their phones off until they have disturbed all of us getting to their seats and then proceeded to check their messages. When I told them to switch off their phones I was asked "What's yer problem?" Now where was a_person????

I can imagine if I said anything I'd be met with hearing Shooshes from all round the room - like I was the one talking! I just sat and seethed hoping someone else would say something.
