Living up to the stereotype
I was on a train recently when a screaming harpy with three kids in tow came screaming into the quiet coach and ranted at a couple of people sitting in booked seats at a table that they should move because she needed the table for he family. Eventually the rightful occupants left, just for some peace and quiet.

The brats looked like fairly typical Connors, Jadens, Kadie-Lees, Shannons, that sort of thing. I don't know for sure, but I do know that the mother was indubitably, unmistakeably, and quite unsurprisingly, a Scouser.

Me/
I have and I do. I'm pretty stubborn about Public Transport. I will make you leave if you are in my seat, move your bags if they are on my table and basically act like the self righteous arsehole that I sometimes let show here too.
