I went out to the cinema with my friends to see a film I’ve wanted to see for ages. From the moment we sat down, a group of teenagers behind us didn’t stop talking and laughing, and even chatting on their mobile phones. Anyway, eventually I lost my temper. I turned around and shouted at them. Almost immediately, an usher appeared and angrily told me to leave. My friends were laughing their heads off afterwards, but I’m still furious. It wasn’t my fault! So anyway, here I am back at home, letting off steam on my blog! So, what about you? Have you suffered from people’s bad habits recently? Tell me all about it and cheer me up! (Liam) It’s really annoying. What gets on my nerves is bad table manners. I’ve got a really funny story about this. A few months ago, I went to a restaurant with my family. While we were trying to decide what to order, we heard some strange noises coming from the table behind us. It was a man slurping his soup really loudly. When he finished, he started complaining to the waiter that his steak was tough and the potatoes were overcooked. We felt really sorry for the waiter. The final straw was when he sneezed loudly without covering his mouth, and a piece of bread flew out of his mouth and onto our table. I’ve never seen anything like it. Anyway, about a week later, my dad read an article in the food section of a newspaper about difficult customers and the way restaurants deal with them. At the top of the page, there was a picture of the writer and … you guessed it. It was the man in the restaurant with the bad manners! He was a restaurant critic. (Suzy)
