    DD2 drove to Portsmouth today to catch the cross channel ferry. The car got searched at the docks. They asked her to open the bonnet! She had no idea where to start with that one. :D
    She's not blonde but she should be!

    They sense when it is 5 mins before closing time. You can sit there for ages without a customer and then ......
    And no matter how hard you jingle the keys they will not go. And they NEVER buy anything! :mad:
