Two folk standing chatting at the door to Asda tonight blocking the entrance, got past them to be greeted by two folk having a conversation blocking the security barriers to get in the shop. 
 

Are folk just utterly clueless to what’s going on round about them? 

In my experience (which is very similar to yours) people are either clueless or just don't care that they're inconveniencing others as long as they're getting their way

I'm sure I've posted this before but, just incase, diluting juice.

I'm f**king sick of taking the time to work out whether it is 'normal', double or quadruple strength. Oddly, I don't think I've seen triple strength.

It's all just so unnecessary.

If you want triple strength,  just mix the double and quadruple together. 

(Actually, this was posted in jest but it might actually work,)

Are you my wife? I can't let her make a drink. It's either like plain water or cough medicine.

In England they apparently call diluting juice squash. My daughter's partner is English.

I'm trying to convert them.

Squash.

Back in the days of the rotary dials the neighbouring town had dialing code 0828.  My mates number started with 2828..

I just waited until school for a blether.

Was your mate an owl?

Squash.

Hate to tell you, but people call it squash here too.

Squash might only be for orange-flavoured diluting juice though. I've never heard anyone refer to "apple squash" or similar. Oddly, I don't think anyone drinks squash-flavoured squash.

So if I ever wander into a pub in Alloa and ask for a 'pint of orange squash', I won't be met with a frosty glare and a retort of "We don't serve cocktails" ?

Depends on the pub.
