I very rarely sit at a table to eat these days and the last time was at Xmas, but what bugs you etiquette wise? I hate it when people eat with their mouths open and noisy eaters.

people who don't hold their little fingers up properly while drinking tea. Really, they must have been brought up in a pigsty.

Agree with you there, shedman

I hate it when people concentrate on what others are doing instead of eating their own meal and minding their own business

Aww that poor puss doesn't seem to be getting any milk at all ...

It's the open-mouthed eaters that get to me. The food looks good on the plate but i have no wish to see it in it's masticated form.

We used to love the kids show 'The Dinosaurs' - Earl often had to tell his workmate to shut his mouth because his dinner was waving at him :D

People using their knife like a pen!

Not much really, I'm usually concentrating on my own plate and hoping not to miss my mouth.

09:08 what does clicking knuckles do with table manners?!

[Canary42]

Surely people who don't eat at table can't have bad table manners ?

Re: overloading plates - a few years ago I had the misfortune to go to an all-inclusive resort in Egypt, and unknown to me the Russians had arrived (awful people - if I never meet a Russian again it will be too soon). They went further than overloading their plates, they overloaded their tables, and then left about 80% of it untouched and you'd see the waiting staff come round and shovel it into bins.

Also, people who hold their knife like a pen.
