Two bacon sandwhiches and two cappucinos please to take away - a simple request, not in Flackwell Heath it's not. You would not believe my normally leisurely journey to work this morning.
First off I had to do the ice removal, I quite like doing that bit. Then as my lady friend and I were running late we skip breakfast and I decide to go for bacon sandwhiches.
Head for Flackwell Heath sandwhich shop - looks clean and tidy I thought, that'll do. There were a couple of women behind the counter dressed "Americana fashion" peaked caps, you know the sort. Great, I'm the only one in the establishment so this will be quick.
"Two bacon sandwhiches and two cappucinos please" I said.
I should have known something would go wrong when one half wit said "Would you like the bacon warm?"
I was stuck in that shop for nearly twenty minutes whilst one made the sandwhich, one buggered about with the coffee machine and the aroma of fried food permeated every item of clothing I had on........I haven't checked my gusset yet, but you just know don't you?
Ok, sandwhich made, but ofcourse sandwhich woman doesn't know how to do the money so she passes that task on to coffee lady - who is still frothing milk at this stage, warm bacon (door wide open) now going cold. Ok, transaction made............................
