They hate me making up my own breakfast, they have a certain greasy spoon etiquette I enjoy ignoring, yet they grudgingly serve me. I think it's because I only go in once a month I'm not a regular and i'm quite unlikeable.

Considering you are a Guardian reader it goes without saying you are fully loaded with beaucoup chips on your shoulder.

Dont read too much into the fact they give you the silent treatment.

Most eateries frown on members of the public bringing in their own food.

When I was 18/19 and a trainee accountant I remember being quite patronising to the tradesmen types who frequent the greasy spoons despite coming from pretty much the same background as them. Until one day in a pub one such oik challenged me to some mathematical dueling and pretty much whooped my arse. I have never made the same mistake since.

Were you wearing a cravat?
:D :D

The kite mark for a greasy spoon is whether they do Daddies or HP?

Leave if not HP, throw coins at them Mullery style "that's all your worth!" etc as you leave, disgusted.

Got up especially early today to head down to my local café where no-one speaks to me because I read the Guardian and none of them can read. I was so looking forward to my personal favourite breakfast made up of individual items, Bubble and Squeak, Sausage, poached egg and beans with a mug of tea and a strawberry milkshake. I'm healthy ****er so this is my once a month treat. They hate me making up my own breakfast, they have a certain greasy spoon etiquette I enjoy ignoring, yet they grudgingly serve me. I think it's because I only go in once a month I'm not a regular and i'm quite unlikeable.

Anyway, my difficult breakfast order was slapped down in front of me. Despite eating it once a month for a few months now, and always looking forward to it, the minute it was in front of me I lost all my appetite. Couldn't touch it. Why? Have I turned?

Does this happen to anyone else? Does anyone give a toss? Will I get a "Cool Story Bro" pic posted.

Strange though ain't it.

Simples rule of thumb is order your breakfast like you'd order your haircut - with a number between 1 and 3. Obviously.

As a guardian reader you should be eating croissant and drinking an expensive coffee... followed by a fresh fruit salad and freshly squeezed orange juice.

Serves you right. Know your class!
