Oh I forgot...

I forgot to tell you what happened in Ikea on Monday...

Last time I was in there they had set up a new display for shelves and it was set up like a shoe shop. They had shoes and boots displayed everywhere. (I knew they were just for display, just the way they have loads of books in a living room display.) Anyway last time we were in my friend and I talked about going over to one of the assistants and asking for a certain in shoe in another size. But we couldnt do it for laughing.

Well on Monday we did it. It was hilarious. I took one of the shoes down and found this really nice sales assistant. "Excuse me, would you have this shoe in a size 40" He looked at me weirdly and then very nicely said "Sorry but those shoes are only for display - we dont sell shoes." as he gave me a really sorrowful look.

I then couldnt keep my face straight any longer...I said - "I know, I´m sorry but I just couldnt resist doing that - and you were so nice to me." We told him about how we had wanted to do that for a while. He laughed with us and took it all very well.

Later we were in the bedroom department - there in one of the wardrobes was loads of clothes. I said to my friend " How about taking them out and then finding a sales assistant and asking where the changing rooms are!!" That set us off again in a laughing fit. (I know little amuses me!) Unfortunately we couldnt find one. We will have to just try that one next time!!!
