Yesterday and met my lovely niece Tanya with her baby and my grandson. We met in M&S cafe at Junction 27. Tanya settled with the babies and I went to get us a couple of coffees.
There were two ladies in front of me, they were waiting for their coffee having paid.
I ordered our coffee and paid for them and was then standing at the side of the ladies also wait waiting for mine.
Looking around I glanced down and in the ladies handbag at the side of me, was a purse, I thought thats just like mine (Gordy pink zip).
On second look, I registered it was my purse. Unusually, I have not taken my handbag with me to buy the coffees, Just my purse. I had obviously paid and placed my purse in the handbag almost in front of me, thinking it was mine.
I now had the embarrassment of having to ask the lady……who had by now gone to pick her bag up, if I could retrieve my purse from her handbag.
Fortunately, the lady was highly amused when I explained my predicament, and I sheepishly walked away with two coffees and my purse.
Good grief!
