    Manners

    Most people have them....except when they are on the tube. Why is that?

    A man had the cheek to rest part of his newspaper on my HEAD this morning.

    I didn't know whether to kick him in the nuts or applaud his audacity.
    Practically perfect in every way....there's a time and (more importantly) a place for malarkey.

          It's like taking a free kick, see. You want to know whether to just drill it on your laces, or use the inside of the boot.

          In your case I would have just jabbed him in the balls.
          Knock first as I might be balancing my chakras.

            Mine does too as I have no idea what por kwar means or even if it is really French.

            Is it possible that he did not realise it was resting on you?
            Otherwise, I agree that that is amazingly rude :-(

              I've seen it all down there.

              Glad to be out of the metropolis though Soton isn't much of an improvement...

                Google tells me that 'why?' in french is pourquoi? So, nearly.

                He knew; when I thwacked it away and glared at him, he actually huffed at me and tried to move it back, till I asked him if he was effing serious.

                  Just be worried when they rest their pint on your head!
                  Always forgive your enemies; nothing annoys them so much.

                    I'd have flicked the paper, then as he lowered it coughed in his face, flutter of eyelashes 'ooops, sorry'.
