Shopping Slip Up

Yesterday evening was late night shopping at our Debenham's, so we went. We did manage to do some of our Christmas shopping, but I wanted to tell you about an 'incident' and the absurdity of what people sometimes say.

A assistant was mopping the floor and a girl of about 12 slipped over on it. The assistant pointed to the "Caution, wet floor" sign. The girl, as she got up, said, "Sorry!" WHY?? She had done nothing wrong. The assistant said, "Be careful!" Rather redundant as she had already slipped over!

Oh, the joys of late-night shopping ...
