[Aussie Mike]

I called into the supermarket today. I was standing there at the checkout with my loaf of toast cut bread and there was this old lady at the next checkout over with a loaf of regular sandwich cut bread. I looked over and figured she likes bread. I thought that she would look over and notice that I liked bread too but she didn't.

So there were stood, not saying a word.

The girl behind the checkout asked If I had a fuel discount card but I forgot to bring it with me. Oh, she says, and mumbles something else whilst ringing up my groceries.

I glance over at the old lady with the sandwich cut bread, She's still there but not making any conversation. oh well, I've run into these kind before. just leave em alone and they don't pose any problems, it's daylight at least.

I'm finished running my groceries through, I pay and and bag everything up. Glance over once more to see if the old lady want to compare notes on bread, but no chance. just as well.

I load all my stuff into the back of the car and go take the trolley back. I almost forget to take the $2 coin out of the slot when I return the trolley and latch it.

I jump in my car and off I go, looking back at little old lady with the bread, she's loading her stuff into her car and not even looking up.
