A funny (and true) story

**Petal** · 14-12-2009, 09:49 AM

My OH has just popped in and told me about an arcade in Suffolk. They used to have a stall where you could 'hit the mole' with a trusty mallet.

The chap who owned the stall has modified it to become

'hit the banker'

Apparently it has proved so popular, that he's having to replace the mallets on a regular basis

LOL - I love the idea of this. No wonder it's so popular, I know I'd have a go.

It does happen quite often to one or other of us. It's difficult to pay 100% attention all the time. They took 2 bangles off a cushion and left the cushion there. Someone else had some leather gloves nicked.

I'm sorry to hear that Carole - sadly there are a few tea-leafs about at the moment. Over the weekend, an old favourite (?!) was escorted off the market and friends had scarves and sweaters nicked. Grrrrrrrrrrrrrr!
