  1. I always thought that people who kept their hands under the table were up to something.

  2. You know your getting old when..

    We've been looking for a new car for Mrs N for a while. The other day we found it, she, was delighted.. We went to the showroom today to pay for it and, collect it.. They had some Italian bits and pieces in the showroom plus some F1 memorabilia..
    The salesman said, " OK Madam, if you would just like to pop you credit card in the chip and pin machine I will go and get the keys along with your receipt" I was at the time looking at Racing driver prints on the showroom wall, only 20 ft or so away..while doing s, I heard Mrs N say, " Noods, Papa Noods!" I pretended not to hear as TBH I was much happier where I was... Then, I heard a uncontrollable laugh, like that of a hyena, accompanied by the deep laugh of the salesman too. Mrs N was almost rolling about the floor such where her hysterics..

    I wandered over to see what was going on... It turned out Mrs N had been calling me over after desperately seeking help.. When the salesman had returned, and having not received any help from me, she had said to him.. " I'm really sorry, but I'm struggling to get my card into you machine, it won't go in the slot for some strange reason!" " Er madam" said the salesman, " I'm afraid the reason your card will not enter the machine is because, that's actually my calculator! the chip and pin machine is on your left, over here!" He said, sliding the machine over to her..

    God that was embarrassing, but bloody funny too it has to be said...

    We made a hasty exit...

    Before anyone says it.. She doesn't actually need specsavers as such as she has perfectly good specs in her handbag, she's just too vain to put em on... X
