Granny’s Gripes: Sharp Observations from a Life Lived ProperlyBy Christine Smith (The Food Granny)Ever been called 'love' by a total stranger? Found yourself shouting at a QR code? Or wondered why reverse parking feels like the Hunger Games?Meet Christine Smith, retired business owner, world traveler, unapologetic grumbler, and your new favourite granny. In *Granny’s Gripes*, she dishes up a hilariously relatable collection of essays on modern manners, misbehaving signage, unsolicited endearments, and the everyday absurdities we’ve all silently (or not-so-silently) endured.Each chapter tackles a different modern irritation with razor-sharp wit, old-school wisdom, and the comforting energy of a woman who knows how to make a perfect cup of tea and how to run a boardroom. From loud coffee machines and limp social media to the mystery of group chats and the perils of supermarket etiquette, Christine serves insight with a generous dollop of humour.But this isn’t just a rant, 'Granny’s Gripes' is a gentle call to live with more grace, purpose, and dare we say it, better bin etiquette. It’s for anyone who’s ever sighed at a badly designed menu or longed for a workplace with decent biscuits.Perfect for fans of David Sedaris, Nora Ephron, or 'people-watching with attitude', this is the book to gift your friend, your mum, or yourself because life’s too short to pretend you don’t care about loud chewers.Grab a cuppa. Settle in. And prepare to nod, laugh, and mutter, 'Finally, someone said it.'
