    Popped in to ask the price of a house up for sale & she gave me a strange look. Dunno why, I don’t think I looked odd or strange. I was wearing shorts & T shirt & carrying one cycling shoe, an allen key & half a turnip. ❓

    Maybe she thought that as you clearly couldn’t afford a whole turnip, then the price of the house was irrelevant

    It’s cos the price of the house was on the picture in the window, & she thought you couldn’t read.

    It wasn’t.

    I’m going in with the other shoe, a different sized allen key & a whole turnip next week, see if she notices. 🙂

    Was the turnip shaped like a thingy? That could have been it… 😆

    I wish. Maybe I should’ve said ‘why did the foxy young lady in the estate agents…’

    There’s a clue in the allen key size, ‘one cycling shoe’

    Anyway I’ve eaten half of the half turnip with the haggis a some mash. 😆

    …an allen key…

    Perhaps you inadvertently put her in a hex..?

    I’d expect my estate agent to flounce all over a potential buyer no matter what kind of root vegetable they were packing, Thei utter contempt and gruffness should rightly be reserved for their actual clients.

    About right, having had to deal with a few over the past few months.
