10 GRUMPS OF THE DAY
(well, four so far – still thinking, and open to suggestions)“GIVE 110 PER CENT”… not an expert in physics (didn’t even particularly enjoy it at school), but surely giving 110 per cent would result in the body imploding into a black hole.
“FASHIONABLY LATE”… There’s nothing fashionable about being late; it’s just plain discourtesy.
NOUVEAU cuisine described as “CARPACCIO” of this or “carpaccio” of that… It’s just foam and it resembles what the cat leaves on the floor when trying to get rid of hair balls. In short, it’s not pleasant. Or, as the Spaniards would say, it’s “una mariconada” (roughly translated as “a load of crap”).
“BACK IN FIVE MINUTES”… Yeah, sure; if it’s going to be an hour and a half, say so – and don’t make people wait unnecessarily.

Not that life always warrants a hearty old grump… as evidenced by this ZEN MOMENT at Marbella’s Buddha Beach.
