It’s not every day that you trip over an Indian and he tells you that he loves you….

August 20th, 2009

Yup.  It’s true.  I am having an odd sort of day.  I have managed to spray paint my face by accident, which was neither big nor clever.  Then, feeling a bit thirsty, I decided to visit Chelt Express, a new newsagent over the road from my office.  I walked through the door and managed to trip over an Indian gentleman who was crouching on the floor by the biscuits.  In a fit of terror (he almost held his hands up) he blurted out “I LOVE YOUR FOR EVER AND EVER OK???”  I stood for a moment, in a state of confusion before replying in a slightly bumblous fashion, “I was just after a bottle of water and a Freddo actually….And potentially a roll of sellotape if you sell it?!”  After which I bid a hasty retreat, after a brief conversation with five or so more gentlemen in a group (the shop is clearly a team effort!)  Odd times.
