While I stayed outside with the dogs, my wife went into our local ‘corner’ shop and sub-post office closely followed by a small girl with her mother.
When my OH came out she was shaking her head: “That woman in there” she said indignantly, nodding in the direction of the shop, “is telling her daughter lies”.
“How’s that?” I asked. She looked at me solemnly.
“She’s telling her daughter that one piece of chocolate is enough”.
Well… it IS a lie!!
