A Dirty Muffin


Am I the only person that sees the funny side of very ordinary things?
I was sat in the vets early this morning with a very itchy William
( now there's a double entendre if ever I wrote one)
And I was Hoping that George Clooney was on duty
There were three customers
Me
and two middle aged women, both with cats in carriers
We introduced our pets in passing
William
Smegal
And a somewhat angry looking Persian called muffin
Muffin's owner called over to the receptionist and asked which vet was taking the clinic
" I have to tell you before I go in" she confessed " that he's been living in an outbuilding for a few months"
The woman looked over at me, and in way of explanation said in a very posh voice that her
" Muffin  was all wet, dirty and terribly unkempt "
I bit my cheek and looked down at the floor
as the receptionist started to cough

    1. I heard a well-to-do matron saying that she wanted some 'tongue and groove' in a wood yard once. The response was, "Don't we all, Madam".

      Are you talking about Urban Dictionary #1, or the kind that hangs over your pants, or both?

    3. Could it be his diet? My dog periodically comes up in huge itchy bumps which can be anywhere on her anatomy and drive us all mad with the scratching. The vets have all been totally flummoxed and not really been any help except for prescribing steroids for when it's at its worst. We have improved things no end by feeding her different stuff.

  16. Flashbacks to Are You Being Served?

    No, you're not the only one who hears subtexts in these things. Hanging around chefs will corrupt you, too. Many a time I have found myself in similar circumstances, wishing I weren't alone and could share a glance with someone like you!

  17. There used to be a department store in Bradford called Brown Muffs. One of my previous husbands was an insurance broker handling their account, in the days when everything was on paper, computers being unheard of.
    One day he took a call from their manager to which he shouted across the office "who's got Brown Muffs?"
    He was rather confused when all but one of the female insurance clerks put their hands up !!

  28. standing in a shop browsing by the door.
    A young couple came in, she wafting scent as she walked.
    "Oh" he said as she walked through the door ahead of him and the heater blew the (rather overpowering) perfume back "I can smell your Froufrou"
    And of course I wet myself

  29. Not just you...

    I was in the queue at Costa the other day and the pretty girl behind the counter said "Coffee for you sir?" I replied with "Skinny Latte please" (how bourgeois!) to which she smiled and said "Can I tempt you with any muffin sir?" I managed to keep a straight face but the guy behind me exploded in a coughing fit

  33. That's so funny. Unfortunately, I was in that woman's shoes the other day when the computer tech asked me what was wrong with my computer and I came out with 'It keeps going down on me'. I had to leave very quickly.

  34. I think i would've burst out laughing.

  35. That made me laugh. And by way of return...

    A friend last night was boasting to me that she had brought herself several hard hats in bright colours as she was fed up having to wear the standard yellow ones at work.

    Then proudly showed me her purple helmet.

    I left the obvious comment to the riggers on her next job.
