I was in town just after 9am this am and had one of the best laughs in a long time with a young lad in the small shop that I now frequent. I’m far too impatient to stand in a LONG q!!!!

The customer in front of me was, obviously, one of his mates and even standing the “required” 2 metres away I could hear them talking about their recent larks and fun.

So. My turn. Young lad greets me with….”Are you behaving well today?”

Me – “Don’t be daft. I never do. That’s just too boring.”

Sigh. Nice conversation.

As I was leaving he asked the same q to the woman who’d been 2 metres behind me.

She replied – “Yes. I always do.”

Tut. Tut.
