... You're in the coffee shop in John Lewis and sitting next to you are two sweet little old ladies who are clearly enjoying a day out in town. They are smartly dressed for the occasion in tweed skirts and pastel coloured blouses under their neatle tailored jackets. Make up is immaculate - cheeks powdered and just a hint of rouge (or maybe they've been pinching their cheeks like my mum used to do to give them a bit of colour - ouch!) Pearls sitting neatly around their necks. One took her seat while the other went off for the cherry scones and a pot of tea for two. They looked just like evryones idea of Gran.
And then a mobile went off and one of these dear little ladies whipped it out of her bag! That in itself ruined my picture of the ideal grandma - but the finishing touch was the ringtone...
...' Hey Big Spender' !!!
Just goes to show how deceptive appearances can be!

Shirley Bassey is 73
ReplyDeleteYeah - but there's no way she looks anything like those two old dears!
ReplyDeleteSo have you thought about changing your ring tone to 'Hey big spender' then Sue? ;-) What have you got now? What would you go for? (You may be able to predict I have the factory settiing Nokia tone.....so what should I consider????)
