They say don't look a gift horse in the mouth. hide
I was stuffing wood into my Tin Top at the local Homebase store the other day when I noticed this oldish Guy dithering over where to park in the half empty car park.
He pulled over near to my car and in a broken Italian/English asked me how to get out of the car park and get onto the M25 for Heathrow Terminal 1.
Having explained how to do this he was so pleased he wanted to give me a gift???? I refused but he insisted.
He gave me an empty bag and started stuffing it with Hugo Boss gear, two suits, leather coat, suede jacket, 4 shirts and ties.
He said he was in Fashion and had been at a Fashion Fair in Birmingham and had too much luggage. I just could not believe my luck.
Then came 'THE STING'
The one Coat he was keeping for his son needed to be paid for or he would lose his job.
Did I have any cash I could give him? - no say's I. Well we can go to a cash point - I need £500.
The Stuffed Full Bag was back in his car and I was 'Offski' - leaving him to find the next MUG!! scared
