...in his fish pie....
Lovely meal tonight....restaurant overlooking the sea.....tables fairly close together...cosy but not cramped....and quiet music....bliss!
A couple came to sit at the next table.....elderly and obviously a new couple.....very English.....accents...dress....first holiday together I think...
He started to talk to her about the election......opinionated but quietly so...until she tried to venture her thoughts.....
He slammed both palms on the table...and still speaking fairly quietly but gruffly and measured now, told her to....Shut Up!...I am speaking!.....Please do not interrupt me until I have finished speaking! Listen to what I am saying!
Crikey!....Made me jump.....poor lady went rigid and red.....she said very little for the rest of the meal.....behaved very well I thought.....
I joke about dunking him in his pie.....but in truth I would have stood up and calmly left.....You?.....x

Ael...you made me laugh!...They weren't unlike the Mays ten or so years on either.....
This wasn't a situation where any one of us should have done anything really.....he was so quiet in his nastiness that only those almost next to him would have heard...and the girls at the table the other side were laughing and chatting....I doubt they noticed...
His companion came across as someone who would hate public fuss so any interference would have made it worse for her....
It would be nice though to think she put him in his place in private......
Hi, TWR...not cheating....but I do have to eat and you've been remiss with the mushy peas of late...... ;-)...x

Exactly, Seek......and of course if Talbot was there he'd be proved right....and that would never do..... ;-)
If they're a long time couple maybe she knows what happens if he's thwarted and prefers to keep the peace by smiling and giving in rather than having a public show....
That's what I would do......before dosing his bedtime cocoa with laxatives.......x

Not at all, J....I maybe didn't word it well.....but I did mean what would you do in the position of that lady.....
In her position I would have calmly left....maybe excuse myself to go to the ladies and leave him waiting....
In my position last night I did what was right I think and ignore.....to have interfered would have embarrassed the lady and it wasn't my place.....but oh......I could have slapped his pompous face!....x

Do you know, Seek....it's bothered me....silly I know as it really has nothing to do with me....
He was such a jerk and she seemed so pleasant and considerate in her attitude towards him that I hope she isn't landed with him for good....if she is he doesn't deserve her.....
This is a tiny, tiny place and they will have been staying near....I was hoping to see them today just to take more notice.......and maybe suggest she runs for the hills............ :-)
Perhaps if we meet up in one of the restaurants again.....fairly likely here...I'll engage him in conversation then interrupt him......just to see what happens......x
