Nice little glitch at A!

I was only actually charged £3 for the Ariel but it shows as £5-20 on the apg.

This was a CC order so it must be £3 instore.

£5-20 0n A website and MSM.

So works out at 58p!:T:T

Talking this morning about the Victoria Wood sketch 'Two Soups' with Julie Walters as the doddery old waitress, and got to discussing 'Great Waitresses of our Time'.

One friend years ago was in one of those old-fashioned department store restaurants (do they still exist?), in Sheffield as it happens, and asked, what is the soup? The waitress (black uniform with white pinnie, and pad and pencil on a string from her waist) toddled off to the kitchen and came back to announce:
"It's soup of the day".

At the same restaurant, on another occasion, he wanted cheese and biscuits, and asked, what kind of cheeses did they have? Same thing, waitress goes off to find out, comes back:
"We've got orange cheese and white cheese".

Someone else told this story: "Years ago, we were in a pub in Polperro, Cornwall, at lunchtime. Fish pie was on the menu, so of course I asked what was in the fish pie. The barman looked at me and said: 'Fish'."

Me n the kids still laugh about the time a restaurant we were in had "lemon pudding" on the menu. I asked what it was and got the reply "it's a pudding and its lemon". We didn't order it. One of those had to be there moments tho :rotfl:

This got me thinking about the day I went into a cafe and ordered 2 coffee's, 1 black, and 1 white to take away. The young girl went and made the 2 coffee's and brought them to me. I then asked for sugar and she said 'I put sugar in them' So, I asked her how many sugars I like in my coffee? she said, 'two'. lol So, I said to her 'how do you know that' she just stared at me with no answer:rotfl: I had to tell her that I like 3 sugar and no sugar in the black 1.

My BIL claims that he overheard the following conversation at breakfast time in a posh hotel in London. The waiter comes up to two ladies and says " Good morning ladies - English or continental?" and one lady replied "Oh no ya see we are Irish":D:D

Hi everyone, good afternoon. I've been so tired! DD has been up every night for the past week now, for 2-3 hours in the middle of the night, but she's still waking up at the same time every morning Cheeky monkey.

So I've fallen behind on here a bit and tried to read everything back and hope I haven't missed anything and no one has replied to me or anything like that

Today is supposed to be an NSD for me... but potential glitch at A sounds exciting
