shopping in a well-known department store, for the purposes of this thread let's call it Lewis Johns and sitting for a well-deserved cuppa and bowl of fairly heavenly cream of vegetable soup...

a lad, about 11/12 comes up and pushes a sponsorship form in front of me, mumbles something about a boxing club and Amir Khan and wants me to write my name and address down.

i told him i wasn't local, that i was only visiting the area and wouldn't be able to guarantee when i was back in town to give him his money...

he said it was ok, i could give him the cash there and then.

what would you have done?

Never knowingly under ripped off?

Sorry....Its the thought of having my mother in law stroke my breast.

Oh gilbonzo.

You poor thing.

GilbonzoTheSecretPsychoCunt · 10/09/2011 22:06

It's all going to be ok. The doctor told me that I qualify for a breast reduction so I'll just make sure that's the bit they hack out Grin

Sorry AuntieM.........ummm.....YANBU? YABU? I'm too drunk to know now.

AuntieMonica · 10/09/2011 22:12

anyway, i told the lad to please abstain from interrupting my luncheon (or 'do you mind, i'm trying to eat my fucking soup and i hate boxing') and as i had decided to alert the staff, a young lad who was doing the washing up at one of the sinks they've got tucked away in the cafe (i like this touch, makes the place seem 'human' Grin) spotted him and manhandled him out of the cafe

job done
