One of these days I will forget my better upbringing, and say something rude. And there was a group of "men" in the lager section - bloody Southerners. Should dig a trench. Hadrian had the right idea - just put the wall too far north. They were acting in that really annoying way that makes you want to slap them. And prawns - not that there were any, but a couple of women were stood yaking in front of the freezer. It's a supermarket, not a therapy group. You shop. See - pick up item, put item in basket. I stood there with my arms folded, a gentle "You're a moron but I'm patient" look on my face, until they took the hint and moved. It's like Leeds has been invaded by idiots.

The people who really get on my tit end are those that start unloading their shopping BEFORE you have finished unloading yours at the till leaving you with no room to put your weekly shopping without overlapping into theirs.
