I took my life in my hands today

I took youngest Junior O to the cinema today. We could barely hear the film for the teenagers in front of us and behind us. The group behind responded to a polite request to be quiet...the group in front did not. I singled out the biggest one and then very slowly (using a line nicked from a TV show) said: IS...THIS....YOUR....FIRST...TIME...IN...A...
.CINEMA?

It worked and I didn't get my head kicked in! Result!

Well done Mrs O, I am glad it worked.

You should have used the Marigolds, the Whitby sand and the cattle prod for good measure.

I had to go and see Mirrror Mirror last week with the grandkids - gag. Had a kid behind me who kept kicking my seat and a bag rustler on my right. Oh yes and snoring on the left (from Grandad).

It's useful being 6' 3" - not because I'm intimidating (I'm a pussy cat really).

I just, not very subtly, change seats with my companion to sit directly in front of the prime offender ... I was challenged by a parent once - I merely said "They didn't seem to be watching the film" ... ;)

It's not just teenagers . I was sitting next to two nature women in the cinema and they chattered continuously so I lent over and commented I hope you are not going to talk right through the whole film because it is very annoying. They looked at me as if I was mad but they eventually shut up when I kept glowering at them.
