The Things People Say.

I was in a food shop today, just getting some 'bits', which is always dangerous as I end up buying other 'bits' that we don't really need.

One of those 'bits' was a box of Mr Kiplings Mini Victoria Sponges, and as they went over the scanner, the check out person said,' Oh I really like those, they are quite nice!'

I laughed and indicated that they wouldn't last long in our house blah blah.

When I got home and began putting the shopping away, with an audience looking over my shoulder to see what goodies I had bought, there were squeals of delight as the cakes came out of the bag, and I told them what the assistant had said.

The response was, 'Well, if she really likes them, surely she would say they are really nice or very nice, not just quite nice!'

We agreed that she must have been quite confused and didn't really have a clue what she was talking about and then proceeded the eat the cakes which proved that I did know what I was talking about.
