I have to admit I am old fashioned in this respect - I love it when people (usually receptionists when I have an appointment somewhere) call me Mrs.....it makes me feel a little bit proud, especially if my OH is with me.How soft is that?
I can't stand being addressed as Ms....

But worse of all is when strangers (assistants in a certain well known high street optician's chain spring to mind) call me by my first name, especially if it is in public. Not that my first name is embarrassing or anything like that, but it just seems a bit disrespectful and personal to be addressed informally in certain situations.

Blimey, I expect I'm going to be a right miserable old woman!!
