    Absolutely not its a big pet hate of mine rude old people who expect to push in or for you to give up a seat.
    If I wanna use public transport I practically have to remortgage the house. Oap's travel free. I would never see a frail little old lady stand neither would my kids but anyone else stuff them if they don't wanna stand wait for the next bus, which is exactly what I do with DD shopping buggy.

    :think: What about a little old man :D

    Slightly annoyed, tried three different Expresses today, including my nearest, not one of them had the meal deal.

    I want the Magnum glitch back!

    Ditto! My shopping list for tonight is on the table and people have added things to the bottom of it! :eek: Magnums, proper ketchup and oranges with easy peel :D :cool:

    :eek::eek: I don't see why Young un's aren't entitled to a seat after all they payed. Stuff that I pay £4.90 to get the bus. £15 if I got kids with me there's no way I'm paying all that to stand oap's get free travel.

    What annoys me is when adults tell kids to give up their seat when they are sat down themselves. Practice what you preach. Especially when the adults are sat in the allocated elderly and disabled seats and the kids are are further down the bus.

    Why do they think a child is less entitled to a seat than them?

    Some OAP's need to remember respect works both ways also. The amount of times they think they can just push in because they are old is unreal.

    Before anyone asks I give up my seat everytime I am on a full bus to any OAP, lady or child.

    And the offer on these (at Waities) is now being compared to on APG as all items on msm have same individual price. Buy in 3s.

    Heinz Baked Beanz with Pork Sausages in Tomato Sauce (415g)
    Heinz Beef Ravioli in Tomato Sauce (400g)
    Heinz Macaroni Cheese (400g)
    Heinz Spaghetti with Sausages in Tomato Sauce (400g)

    And, yes, it took a womble for me to realise that!:eek: As items, prices and offers have flipped and changed so much at W in the past few weeks (back off and on again:mad:). No great return, but they managed to buy 3 (mix and matched) and fortunately the N/As don't lose me further money:rotfl:. Equivalent to A vs W at '3 for £1.70'.

    Doubtless a proper Avs W list at some point, but lots to do, including a World Cup match to watch (yes, I do get involved in that as a watcher:T).

    Exactly ... I find most old people incredibly rude just because your old doesn't mean your more entitled.
    Ignore reality.There's nothing you can do about it.

    It's about having a bit of respect. I see your point but it irks me to see them all sat down when elderly people are struggling to stand up
