Quite when the brief, wonderful 24-hour period where I attained exactly the right age and degree of pulchritude, I have no idea. I was probably laid up with food poisoning and missed it.<br /><br />I don't fancy George Clooney either. Perhaps I'm not a normal female at all.Kolley Kibberhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07055145770836351738noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21859438.post-1144100491749820392009-10-14T13:27:37.304+01:002009-10-14T13:27:37.304+01:00I hate shoe shopping because I've only got siz...I hate shoe shopping because I've only got size 6 feet and it seems 90% of mens ranges start at 7. It is bad enough having to part with the stupid amount of money some shops want for shoes without having to wait while they search the store cupboard for weeks on end looking for a small enough pair.Simonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02357929317301843307noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21859438.post-4867597050624871632009-10-14T13:21:03.984+01:002009-10-14T13:21:03.984+01:00It is curious that you feel this way (and so do I ...It is curious that you feel this way (and so do I sometimes) when a large proportion of the population claim that they 'enjoy' shopping and find it 'relaxing'.<br /><br />Where are these people going?Cocktailshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06091341579556869010noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21859438.post-21787058791118489362009-10-14T10:50:09.069+01:002009-10-14T10:50:09.069+01:00I now have the confidence to go into even the most...I now have the confidence to go into even the most poncey of clothes shops (ie the first floor of Liberty), talk to the assistants and even try things on, in the full knowledge that I don't have the intention nor the cash to buy them. I also don't mind frequenting teenage shops, because if I get any lip, I'll complain to the manager like I'm Hyacinth Bucket and sail out in high dudgeon.Clairhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01914896847679973163noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21859438.post-48478457029354689452009-10-14T10:46:05.016+01:002009-10-14T10:46:05.016+01:00To be fair to the staff you encountered, they'...To be fair to the staff you encountered, they've probably not been trained in customer service and are unmotivated on shite wages with little chance of prgression. One of the very few good things about the old YTS was that you got proper training. I know, I did it.<br />The other very good thing was that it gave a load of 17 year-old a chance to pop their cherries with members of the opposite sex on the college day release course. A bit like being a student but for thickos.Bright Ambassadorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14123057194595392156noreply@blogger.com
