    Can anyone explain why my otherwise intelligent partner always seems to choose the night before he has an early start to go out with his mate (working in the man shed) until midnight?

    Spoke to grandparents; I'm spending this weekend there to get the big jobs done. I went for tactful and suggested the dog had hidden a damp toy in the lounge perhaps that's why it smelt funny! Hopefully they aren't upset. Their daughter has offered to come and help but she's a bit bull in a China shop so I have her on standby for now.

     Always. Partner & hound are snoring away in bed; wondering if I can get another and bring it back to bed!

    Hubby had a beer last night ( just one ) and he snored like a pig. 

    I've had about 3 hours sleep and now I'm wide awake but totally knackered, if that makes any sense?

    I feel like that Hosta, but I was sound asleep since 10 o'clock ... coffee will cure me ... when it arrives ...

    A tale of two customers.

    Mother and daughter ( early 20s ) came to my till yesterday . I packed and chatted ( as I always do )as I served them and Mum said  " I'm so glad I came to your till. " She turned to daughter and said " I love the way this man packs" 

    She paid and thanked me and then went to the " Welcome desk" and asked to speak to a manager.

    " I'd like to say that gentleman at the cigarette kiosk is an absolute breath of fresh air" 

    Another customer:

    ......... " Can I have a coffee?" 

    Me , " Of course Sir, latte, cappuccino or Americano?" 

    "Oh , just a flat white"

    " so which is closest? Latte, cappuccino or Americano?"

    " I just want a flat white"

    " I have no idea what you're asking for Sir. I don't drink coffee" 

    " I suppose you'd be better if I was asking about Whisky?"  ( thinly veiled racism?)

    " No Sir, I don't drink whisky either"

    " You're not very well informed are you?"
