Well i gave a bunch of kids a shock today. Had to go and pick a prescription up and there was a bunch of teenagers hanging around the door. Anyway someone came out and one of the teenagers grabbed the door and held it open for me - i said thank you and the lad said what! Mustnt be used to being thanked! I've always said thank you when someone opens the door for me or getting off the bus. If we were bad mannered mum would have swiped us one! I got swiped for getting off the bus once and not saying thank you! I was 19 at the time! Mum always said please and thank you dont cost you nothing to say and might make someones day - that was proved today with the teenagers. What i dont like is when someone is eating and talking at the same time. Always swallow your food before you talk. That way we dont get to see what your eating.
