ARRR CAN I HAVE YE NUMBERRRR??

I think I impressed someone in Asda the other day.
Was buying some articles to wear at a pirate party (hat + sword and eye patch for £2.50ish, bargain).

The conversation went as follows:
Checkout guy : Pirate huh?
Me : Yeh, pirate party on Saturday.
Checkout guy : Personally I prefer Ninjas.
Conversation continues...
Me : So, I have to find a way of dressing up as a pirate who has ninja stealth??
Checkout guy : Yeh basically, would be much cooler. Anyway that'll be £10.59.
*Puts in PIN*
Checkout guy : Thanks for that. Couldn't have your number could I?
Me : Sorry, no, I'm with someone.

I have to say, that has to be one of the oddest conclusions to a quick shop at Asda I think I've ever experienced.

Anyway, this pirate costume has to be one of the better arty moments I've had recently.
Compare this to my snowman made out of crushed ice, my attempt at making a origami duck with no instructions, and decorating my PDO notebook.

I'm sure pictures will follow shortly....

That's... that's awsome!

Gotta feel somewhat sorry for the checkout boy... probably spent his whole life looking for that one girl who could share his interest in ninja-stealth-like-pirates, he finds her, only to discover that she's taken :P.

He probably went home after that shift and started ripping up all his ninja-pirate costumes...
