This made me laugh
If Tony was a proper blogger rather than a complete part timer, he would have mentioned this on his own site. But he didn't, so I will.He says he was in HMV yesterday and there was a woman at the counter arguing with the bloke there. She had bought 2 DVDs which were buy one get one free, and she was trying to return "the one she paid for" and get her money back, and keep the free one. She couldn't accept that this was not the kind of transaction HMV wanted to get involved in. As a good will gesture they offered half her money back, but she refused, adamant that she should be able to get a full refund on one DVD and keep the other "free" DVD.
It reminded me of that Adam & Joe sketch where they went into a rough Spar type shop in a rough district of a rough city, and started eating all the bits of the food that were 10% extra free and when challenged by the rough owners kept going "but it's free" and carried on opening food despite the imminent beating. That made me laugh too. I like to laugh.

I think we should do this more often - i.e. I say something and you blog it. It's much less effort than blogging it myself...
It's all the vodka. That's why you're laughing.
