The Compliment I Cannot Share

[mrs_overall]

Yesterday I spent the day once again minding my friend's handbag shop while she went to the wholesalers. A customer I was chatting to said she'd been in the previous week and said "Your mother sold me a lovely purse." My friend is actually 10 years younger than me! There is no way I can tell her about this one.

[snags]

Tell her!

[marval]

Oops, a compliment for you, but your friend might not be best pleased.

[jomifl]

Perhaps her mother sometimes helps in the shop?

[mrs_overall]

Nope,her mother is an invalid who never goes near the shop.

I could tell my friend, who I am sure would rapidly become an ex friend lol

[tonyav]

Nice compliment mrs o was the customer wearing glasses.

[Dee Sa]

makes you feel good when you get a compliment like that Mrs O, but I would not tell friend.

[mrs_overall]

Oi! You are cruising for a bruising Antoine

[tonyav]

LOL.

[Psybbo]

Tony you can be very foolhardy at times

[jomifl]

This may sound cynical but was the buyer angling for a discount?

[mrs_overall]

jomifil....a discount....from a Yorkshire woman.....are you mad? lol

[gness]

Didn`t Tony miss a chance to get in MrsO`s good books?!!!!!

[tonyav]

Yep gness, looks like I blew it again.

<<a discount....from a Yorkshire woman.....are you mad?>> Could Mrs O be Whitby's answer to Auntie Wainwright off Last of The Summer Wine, I ask myself. If so i'll not be troubling Whitby when I visit 'home' lol

[Canary42]

The "customer" was a plant by your friend to test whether you would pass such a comment on. Now what will you do ?

[lady-janine]

i thought woman in yorkshire was related to auntie wainwright.

(ready to jump off the cliff)

[andy-hughes]

Wonderful - and all the more delcious because you must keep it to yourself.
