They should open a Restaurant called 'Greedy Guts'
It will be full in no time.

Gutsofarians more like !

This also could be called Gross people watching
Last night we took the grandchildren out to a Chinese buffet place.


I have been before at lunch time with a friend and the food is good the staff an international bunch hailing from Thailand Nepal and even Romania ( but not china they are all doctors no doubt ) delightful .
But OMG their evening cliental was a different kettle of fish .
Poor Mr M was literally struck dumb by the horror of it all.
Having made the children change into respectable clothles before setting forth I clearly needn't have bothered .
Rarely have I seen such a scruffy motley crew as were assembled there .
It was Chavdom in all its worse forms.
Everyone looked terrible apart from another older couple ,us and the staff .
Our neighbours ( fortunately separated by an empty table )were a youngish family the father /boyfriend /brother was wearing a scruffy track suit bottoms half way down his buttocks giving the uninterested a generous view of his Tesco checked boxers.
He and several other men were sporting baseball caps a fashion item that surely should never have made it off the baseball field in the first place .Much less do they have a place indoors especially at the dinner table.
The spooky twosome on our right crouched twisted on their chairs as if they were about to run off. What is this inability of people to sit properly at a table .?
He was a blue armed tatoo aficionado she looked like an emaiciated member of the Munster family with dead white makeup and light peroxide blond locks .
Despite this they put away food in vast quantities maybe it's their one meal of the week?
However the true horror story was the incredible amount of morbidly obese people there in fact at least 75 % I would think .They waddled in vast tee shirts and leggings to and fro with super laden plates .
Guaranteed to totally kill your appetite .
Surely some people are overweight because they do in fact eat too much ?
Entire families of them .
These were young people who will clearly not make old bones .
Actually it amazes me how do they find mates in the first place ?
One family must have weighted in at less 90 stone the four of them maybe more.
Meanwhile the trim neat little waiters and waitresss scurried hither and thither what ever do they make of us ?
Huge scruffy gluttons ?
Now we weren't staring deliberately but where we were sitting everyone passed by in full view .
I don't think Mr M will get over this his sensibilities have taken a shock .
He looked at his fellow diners with the wonder but not amusement that one usually reserves for the monkey house house at the zoo.
The human race is all its unlovliness .
If we could only see each other as others see us .

Yes maybe we would be seen as stuck up snobs ( we are not) but yuk will never go there again of an evening .

In this bit of Oz the oldies are the fittest.
Lots of really obese youngsters waddling about.

I don’t like those Chinese Buffet places as some are so cheap that you wonder what the quality of the food is.
When l have been to them, I have seem people filling cartons and putting them in their bags.
Many people don’t seem to dress for dinner any more and wander in, in their shorts and flip flops. Maybe, l am just old-fash?

I have noticed in most restaurants these days that many people cannot even hold a knife and fork properly. When they hold their knife like a pen, l wince...so common!

I’ve never been attracted to those restaurants .
Art a lot of people just “fork “ their food. Were they never taught how to use their cutlery?

Re people not dressing for dinner I heard at the best hotel in Benidorm a man turned up for the Christmas Gala dinner in a football shirt .
