Just had a call on my (work) mobile, which I could have so easily gotten horribly wrong...

Me: 'Hello, Alex speaking'

Female caller (no preamble - she was straight to the point!): 'Hi, do you do menages?'

Me: 'Huh? I'm sorry... do we do what?'

FC: 'Menages.'

Me: 'Ummm... what sort of thing are thinking of?'

FC: 'A sand and rubber area, with drainage, for horses'

Me: 'Aha. No, it's not something we've come across before....'

It's fair to say I was NOT thinking about horses :o :D

You should have told her that you have a minimum order of three.
