We went into a garden centre today, mooched and took a haddock and chips lunch, not bad, 8 out 10, peas cold.
Then we walked around the aquatics section, some lovely looking fish on display.
I asked the young girl if she could show me where the 'haddock' were, she said I will go and ask, before I could say more she came back with the manager, I explained I was pulling her leg and even she was slow in seeing the joke, 2 customuz were laffin their heads orfe, get it..

Poor girl...she was trying so hard to please you. Shame...

But humorous nontheless. Which garden center did you go to? The one in Manchester? Was the aquatic life salt-water?

Garden centres often do very nice food....afternoon teas are lovely, they usually come on a three tiered cake stand with fresh sandwiches, scones and assorted cakes, plus tea or coffee....very Aunty Betty teashop like. Smile

Stormee....a lot of youngsters don't get older peoples humour...or maybe she just didn't know what haddock was. Razz

She and the manager did get it eventually.
I am a devil for pulling legs, particularly if someone looks miserable, my wife tells me orfe.
Like our littlunz, I wear myself out tormenting them, little bleeduz.

I bought some pony tack for one of them a little while back, I have subtly been reminded about it, another one needs some different tack, its no good, must get a part time job.
