I had 2 goes at passing GCSE maths and still not that great at it. Spent years working in pubs and shops so can give change quite easily. Stuff like algebra etc does my head in.

s'ok for you lot - what if 'you' are numerically dyslexic like wot oi is - huh huh - then what

You marry a bank manager like wot I did.

I was shocked yesterday when young girl (I say young, prob mid-20's) in specsavers couldn't find her calculator to halve £41.60.

It happened to me a while ago in another shop when tills were down and the assistant had to get calculator out to add up £1, 99 pence and 18 pence.

Anyone else had shocking encounters in shops recently?

This did make me laugh as my lovely lovely geordie best pal once said to me on finding a very useful little bargain.
