Busy cafe. Afternoon. Customers at table in the corner put down their menus. I walk over to them, pad and pen at the ready.
ME: Hi there.*
Customers look up. Two ladies, two men (old enough to qualify for the 'seniors choice' fish tea.)
ME: Do you know what you'd like?
One of the men winks at his friends. Looks at me. A wry smile.
MAN: Well... a pension increase ... an all inclusive holiday to Spain ... a full tank of petrol for my mini ...?
Other customers give tittering laughs. I smile, still holding up the pad and pen.
(...ah yes. I see what you did there. Very funny...)
