Chuckle in Your Day

[Stonekeeper]

Many years ago I was a retail manager in a motorcycle shop. The proprietor was a with me behind the counter one day when young lad came in and asked for a pair of Champion spark plugs for his Yamaha XT175. "No problem" my boss replied, looked up the type in the spark plug booklet, pulled a couple down from the shelf and placed them on the counter, "that will be £15 please". The lad looked at the plugs, looked at my boss and exclaimed, "£15? they're only £12 a pair in Halfords but they're out of stock!". Without missing a beat my boss replied, "really? ours are only £9 a pair when we're out of stock".

Thanks for the heads-up.  Fortunately I have a couple of SAMs left after dealing with the carol singers so I should be sorted 😈

I'm just trying to picture this.  Is your Mum lying down face up or standing on her head whilst attempting this?
