"No I can’t, no I know what you mean. He just wants... he’s...

Well I’ve always said that, I think he’s a puff to be honest wiv ya.

Overheard Conversation No. 262

(A pub on a Saturday afternoon. A young woman is standing at the bar next to a much older man. There is a strong smell of roast dinners.)

Man: "Your perfume smells just like Cornish pasties."

Woman: "Ha, yeah... maybe I should get a new one."

Man: "Noo, that one's good, it says 'Come eat me!!'" (Man makes twist-like dance gesture with his arms)

Woman: "Haha." (backing away)
