(although I suspect the editors know this very well).<br /><br />As for being called Mum, I think I'd instantly reply `Thank you Sonny Jim`. But at least he never called you `Grandma` :-/Hogdayafternoonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06188146617570775741noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6728194511488715371.post-9207450506982277552009-08-29T00:14:34.786-07:002009-08-29T00:14:34.786-07:00I'm with Richard - grab any compliment when it...I'm with Richard - grab any compliment when it's going, even if you're not sure it is a compliment...Puddockhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05117007460664110289noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6728194511488715371.post-64194013051540695502009-08-26T11:31:30.491-07:002009-08-26T11:31:30.491-07:00Many thanks Richard... it's just that I'm ...Many thanks Richard... it's just that I'm a bit touchy at the moment and like KD says, they (young assistants) can't help it! It's their youth, inexperience and no doubt the training they've been given! As for my lovely boys... they have demonstrated today that they can be as wild as the wildlife we saw!

I'm a bit confused by the picture?
W...Hi Jenny,<br />I'm a bit confused by the picture?<br />Why does the jpeg refer to "Glen and Mark". I am sure they were not part of the "Wildlife", although some I bet some grandchildren can be.<br /><br />I feel that a lot of people today go on training courses, that teach them only the basics. They are shown what to do, they are told what to say and heaven help them if they don't stick to it.<br />They just cannot or are not allowed to be themselves.<br />In supermarkets where you shop regularly, you will get 'exactly' the same spiel every week from any checkout operator...word perfect. <br />"Would you like any help with the packing?". I am tempted to say " Do I look as if I need any help with packing?" But perhaps best not to ..they can't help it.<br />Cheers....BernardBernardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09024557597864373705noreply@blogger.com
