Today I went to the supermarket and witnessed someone almost completely die of embarrassment. I was standing choosing my milk, minding my own business when a middle aged woman who wasn't quite looking what she was doing put her arm around my waist and rested her head against my shoulder... I was a bit shocked but in a moment of inspiration I just thought it was someone I knew trying to wind me up, and the hair looked just like a woman I worked with so I kind of went with it.
Woman - I just don't know what to do, do you think it'll be alright?
Me - Errrrmmmmm
Woman - I know it's a lot to ask of you but I just want to know for sure.
Me - Errrrmmmmm
Woman - Well we'll find out when we get in won't we?!
She chose that point in the one sided conversation to pull away slightly and look me in the eyes. I have honestly never in my life seen someones face go from peachy red to DRIP white in such a short space of time. All was revealed when another tallish, blondish, slimmish bloke in a black suit appeared infront of us with a multipack of Muller Fruit corners and a confused look on his face. The poor lady had to sit on the floor to recover from a mixture of embarrassment and uncontrollable laughter.
But now I've no idea what he was going to find out "when they got in" or even what they were getting in. I bet it was fun though.
