Popped to the chemist yesterday and handed over my prescription,it wasn’t busy so I waited.Five minutes later the pharmacists calls over to the assistant as we were chatting “that’s the waiters” Well that was it I just couldn’t resist it! Assistant pops back with the prescription and I asked “did she just call me the waiter,I’m a bit offended by that” I looked over to the pharmacist and asked her if she did.She came from behind to the counter and behind the masks there eyes looked shocked and no surprise! The pharmacist pulled her mask down (her poor face was a picture) and I asked again “did you just call me a waiter,I’m really offend by they” She started to apologise and I pulled my mask down and smiled then said “I like to think I am more charismatic than a waiter and would prefer to be addressed as the butler please” Well how facial expression change and laughter erupts in an instance! Like to think I made there day.Hope that makes you laugh on Good Friday!

Have a lovely Easter

It's good to laugh isn't it 😄

It took me a while to think why would she be calling you a waiter .... I've just woken up ha ha

You have a brilliant easter weekend too x

It is indeed Marion!I wondered why she said waiter.Found that strange for about ten seconds.The “stew’pud” (that’s Galic honest) humorous thoughts then started within.........

Thank you.....stay safe

I thought 'waiters' perhaps referred to those waiting for their prescriptions...love the way this was turned around by 'Butler'. Note the capital 'B' for an upgrade status! Keep chuckling...laughter really helps. Happy Easter to all of you on here.

That’s what the young pharmacist was referring too.It’s usually your name.Laughter really does help! Stay safe Knip and enjoy your Easter and hope it’s as sunny where you are as here!

Good one! One for them to both remind them that customers can hear their conversations & to have a relieved giggle at. Well done. 👏

It is awful when you get caught out saying something. As I came out of anaesthetic recently I turned to the young doctor and said”oh you are gorgeous just like Denzil Washington” no one could do anything for me as they were laughing so much.

I did the following day when he came around to check my arm it was a shoulder replacement. He was very gracious and said he had been called a lot worse apparently anaesthetic can do that to you 🤕

Bet you made his day though.....Now shoulder replacement sounds far too painful for me.Hope your better now!

Glad it’s resolved! Just spoke to my neighbour earlier.Haven’t spoken to her in months with the lockdown.Asked if she was ok as she was walking with the imaginary dog leash.Arm out.And she’s telling me she has a frozen shoulder.Could see the pain in the poor woman’s eyes.Not nice!

Get her to have a titanium one like me. It is also recyclable! After cremation they can reuse the metal !

I knew a chap a good few years ago that had a titanium knee cap.He also said he wanted the other one done so it could keep up when running.He had a great sense of humour! Hey I can’t say that after cremation.She will think I’m being a right cheeky so and so.You will have me hanged! ha ha
