Weird moments.

Isn't it weird how sometimes you see something on TV and then that ends up happening to you in real life? A few years ago, my dad came home from work one day, and he was laughing and he said to my mum "I have just had a Little Britain moment!" and then he goes to tell the story. He said he walked into a shop to buy more ink for our printer, so he said to the shop keeper "Do you sell ink cartridges for a Dell (ibsert print number here(I don't remember the printer number as we have a new one now))?" and the guy behind the counter says "One moment, let me just check." and he turns around then yells "Andrew! Andrew! Do we sell ink cartridges for a Dell (insert number) printer?" and a guy deeper inside the shop yells back "No!" and so the guy behind the counter turns round and says to my dad "Andrew said no." and so my dad says thanks for asking then leaves the shop then starts laughing once he is round the corner. My mum then starts laughing, but I don't get it, because at the time I'm to young to watch Little Britain. Then a few years later my mum shows me Little Britain for the first time, and then, I get the joke. My mum asks me what I'm laughing at then I remind her of the story, and we both laugh. For those of you who haven't seen Little Britain, there is a sketch when David Walliams walks into a shop, and asks for something. Then Matt Lucas yells "Margerie! Do we have (insert thing here)?" and then Margerie yells back "No we don't!" and then suggests a place where the customer can buy the item. Now I know it's weird bringing this up now, but I was reminded of this by me and my mum having another TV moment quite recently. Well anyway, that is enough from me today. BYE!
