my sister
was waiting to get in a lift at a tube station and the bloke in front of her was taking ages to get in the lift, and when he did, he was standing right at the front (with his back to her) so she couldn't get in.
She told him rather abruptly, "Could you move up please, some of us would like to get in the lift today!"
But then one of the other lift passengers said, "Don't be so rude, can't you see he's blind?"
My sister muttered a mumbled "sorry" and suffered a rather awkward and silence filled lift journey.
And who was that passenger? Simon, from TV's Trevor and Simon.
*FACT*
