Me to daughter as she went out to walk the dog - "be careful, the front path is really slippy"
Daughter - "If I fall and crack my head open call Eric" (Eric is the dutch doctor who stitched her head up last time she fell in Amsterdam, I'm unlikely to be calling him!)
Younger daughter - "or you could just use gaffer tape"

In a traditional old clock repair shop, cuckoo clocks, railway clocks, carriage clocks and loads I couldn't identify plus an assorted selection of barometers, non new, all with various stickers on indicating repair cost, sale cost, veracity of repair etc... all taking up every available space on the wall, floor, shelves and counter. You wouldn't want to be in there when the hour came around. There's just enough room to open the door, step in and slide down the counter sideways. Behind the counter is a man and woman and I've slithered in, in the middle of a conversation....

Her: "I might re-book that appointment"
Him: head down with a magnifying glass in one eye, "hmmmm"
Her: "It's easy for you men. I have to sit in a chair, lie back and raise my legs and then they fit the cap."
Me: Looks up in alarm and wonders if they've noticed I've come in as this is clearly a very private conversation.
Her: "And the needles they use on it are really painful. You don't have any of that"
Him: Still deep in concenration "Hmmmm"
Me: Begins to shuffle back down the shop and think about making my excuses
.........
Her: It's when they scratch your scalp as they pull the hair through that's the worst
Me: Flush of sudden relief as I realize I've got entirely the wrong end of the stick and the subject is not contraception but hair!
...........
Her: To me "Are you all right, what can we help you with?"
Me: "errr... just a minute, it's temporarily gone out my head....."

Ladies in the office first thing ... "They do take a long while to log you in sometimes"..

"Yes, sometimes I just go off & leave it - if you fiddle with it it just takes longer"..

I resisted the urge to say "welcome to a man's world".

Me: Why?
Bank: Because you conferred.

Bank: Sorry, you'll have to phone back.
Me: With the same answer as I just gave you?
Bank: Yes.
Me: Gnnnnn...

Lots of silence, ive been on my own all day, hardly spoke a word with anyone. I'm a quiet fella, but that drove me nuts today. I hate working on my own all day.

Just having taken back the third of 25 sofas to be recovered:

Manager: Looks good. You've got a job for life here?
Me: Blank look.
Manager: There's another 4 floors worth after this lot.
Me: Really ?
Manager: Yep. And another four hotels.
Me: Oh....................right. (run down the corridor jumping and clicking heels and going woo woo woo)

I think I'll have to keep him happy.

Me: *long detailed explanation of procedure*
A. N. Other: That'll take a long time, I'll get it done in less than half the time of your way
Me: but it'll almost certainly end badly
A. N. Other: Yeah right
Me: Yes, right. It WILL end in tears.
... 5 min latter
*CRASH*
Me: :huh:
A. N. Other: ARG!!!! F**king hell that hurts.
Me: Oh look it didn't work did it! Now go see a first aider. I'll undo this mess
A. N. Other:But it really hurts!
Me: I told you, but no you had to know better didn't you. Now go away & find a first aider.
