hmmm...personal questions at TESCOs? luckily nobody has ever done that to me....and as I have often explained, in shops - over the years..in response to a frequent question....I don't have their 'loyalty card' (whichever shop it is) because as soon as you fill in that type of form...your email inbox tends to fill up with 'third party spam' let us say...and you get unknown callers logged upon your mobile etc etc....and nowadays....because I only use a nectar card at Sainsbury's and nothing else...that sort of thing doesn't tend to happen...wait a minute, I've got a boots card, too...but as I say...'no bother' in relation to either of those cards, luckily....oh and see previous notes upon that covert 'charity shops' agenda in relation to 'gift cards' and chasing up illegal immigrants....because that had been another stage within this ill cult game and why I always refuse a card/form, when offered...not that I am an illegal immigrant but the ill cult had figured that they would pursue and harass me 'as one' etc etc just for the sake of it, really because that is what they do...the 'dirty tricks' department....see previous notes.....in fact, come to think of it....if somebody asked me what I was doing for the rest of the day...I would begin to wonder if they were 'up to something' or not....perhaps jo Caulfield has been targeted by that 'dirty tricks' element of BI but it is difficult to say unless you were to walk 'in her shoes' in order to 'sense' or rather pick up on the agenda of whoeveritis etc etc because it sounds like she is on the verge of becoming rather paranoid...go figure:

...from my own perspective...from a 'mad woman in the attic's perspective...if somebody asked me "what are you doing for the rest of the day?"...well there are a variety of responses that you could play with...dependent upon the perceived agenda of the assistant who has posed the question....

....such as "are you hitting on me?" or something like that, said archly - to a man...(but that's an americanism which might need a bit of explaining)....to be followed up by "silly me - i could see you were a bit the other way, it's all right darling - i understand" etc etc said in a patronising voice......he'll want to close that conversation down fast....particularly if your voice is loud enough for other shoppers to hear.

and then there's....."sorry, are you my mother???" said with a deep frown, quizzical look..."no, you can't be....she's been dead ten years....are you channelling her?" innocent eyes, big smile...should result in embarrassment and/or laughter....and then you've 'got' whoeveritis to back off, pronto.

....or just something silly..."i don't know yet but whateveritis - i'm going to enjoy it" in case the assistant is simply bored and envious of anybody 'not at work'...and you want to make them feel worse.

...let me see....and then there was daldry's advice, given in prague 1995...a sort of 'fit-every-situation response' which is probably the best of the lot - if you're a man, that is - because i have never been able to pull it off....i.e. when you want to close down others, in public because what they have said - has had a negative effect upon you...don't talk, at all...simply stare them out....until they stop or rather 'peter out'....and then walk away.

oh and one more...that I have found many people in Clacton, tend to use....including the gardeners 'down the prom'....and that is to wear wraparound shades....because when you've got them 'down' (instead of perched on top of your head, as I tend to do)...it is like a visor....and without being able to make direct 'eye contact'....well, that puts off most people....go figure.
