Went to B&Q to ask about a broken Hoselock Sprayer bought there a few years ago.

"Do you think that part is meant to fit there and its snapped off with that bit?" I asked.

B&Q staff,

"Oh I don't know - I never designed it"

 

Walking away to hear a woman say to the same guy,

"My Dad asked me to get some compost but I don't know if I should get potting or seed compost"

B&Q staff,

"Oh I don't know - I'm not a gardener"

I do find the honest of the staff refreshing, but of little use when you need assistance.

Today, lunchtime. I was walking through the city centre as a bus pulled in a few meters from me. As I drew level with the doors a gentleman alighted reading his tablet PC and proceeded to walk into my path without ever glancing up from his electronic device.

 

Was I wrong in wanting the cup of hot chocolate I was enjoying to find itself all over this chap and his electronic device?

When we never see epic people anymore like,

Jonny Ball, Sue Cook, Brian Cant, John Cleese, Jasper Carrot, Tom O'Connor, Tim Brook Taylor and on and on and on . . . .

Int Brian Cant dead?

 

EDIT: nope, still alive, aged 80
