This has happened to me before but happened tonight again.

You coming out of Tesco Express.... some-one is walking on the other side of the road....... They give you a huge wave and shout 'Hi, How yer doing?'

You shout back 'Great, how are you?'.

You get a few yards down the street and think 'who the hell was that?'

Oh yes. All the time.

Just the other day, as I walked along the road, a car slowed right down, sounded his horn and waved enthusiastically at me. I waved, enthusiastically, back

Not a scoobie doo :-2

Some years ago, when walking to the bus stop at Hyde Park corner, I recognised my cousin (he used to work on the pleasure boats on th lake) coming toward me so I ran to him and grabbed him round the neck. "Heeyyyy, you ugly git, what are you doing round here"

The poor stranger was mortified at being manhandled by this big galloot, despite my profuse appollogies

:yh_rotfl:yh_rotfl I grabbed what i thought was my sisters arsse in Sainsbury's one day..... after the stranger got over her shock, she said that she thought her luck had changed :yh_rotfl

Happens to me all the time.

Worse are the idiots with bluetooth thingies in their ear

they come towards you and suddenly yell 'hi hows it going ,what are you up to? ect ect... and theres me thinking who the heck are you why are you yelling at me, then as the converstaion continues or they walk straight past I realise its another one of these idiots trying to make me show myself up by answering them.:wah:

Hubby and I were out in our yard and and a man gets out of his car and starts walking toward me. I smiled and said, "May we help you?" As he got closer I realized this man was my older son. He came for a short visit form North Dakota to Georgia..............and I wasn't expecting him. :wah: Talk about embarassing.

Thankyou..... Mr O snapped Puppy giving me a kiss last night :-4

A regular occurence for me is to be out shopping with Mr O, ask him what he thinks of an item i'm looking at only to realise he's wandered off long ago and i'm talking to some-one elses husband. :yh_rotfl

Shows your popularity, oscar! Like that song, "where everybody knows your name...." Just practice your wave like the beauties on the floats, and I bet you get more How Do You Do's next visit!:-6

I was talking to my husband at the store yesterday only to realize he went in the opposite direction and it looked like I was talking to myself. :yh_rotfl

They are so dis-interested in our stuff and then we are suppossed to become excited in an electrical or hardware store :rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes:

I don't know why, but I have a thing for hardware stores. I love them! I'd rather go to a hardware store than a clothing store.
