    Does your mum know you refer to her as elderly? :eek:

    Good point. My Mum's 70 and she'd have my guts for garters if I referred to her as elderly.

    I doubt you'd get very far tbh.........Unless they offer you a full tank of petrol for free just to stop you banging on about it!

    No, after the "TERRIBLE service", she needs to sue and demand a full tank of petrol free every month for life :rotfl:.

    but will you be able to spot them in a crowd to disown them? Apparently once you get to 62 you cannot see anything. I hope you're children are bigger than a4!

    well thankyou for your oh so sarcastic responses. bet you think your so big behind the computer screen well how about you come say it to my face. shell were rude to an elderly lady, didnt help that the worker barely spoke english.

    a friend of mine owns a conservatory business and has told me it is actually the law to display a list of payment methods at the point of purchase. a cheap a4 sign is not enough.



    'Elderly lady' at 62! You need to get real! I wonder how your mother would like to be described thus! :cool:

    As long as it's written on A4 or smaller it's OK, she'll never be able to read it ;).

  • This could turn out to be a good nutter thread on a par with the coop vouchers or the subway free meatballs one.
    I shall keep an eye out with interest.
