Pickpocket ??
Ok, maybe I am being neurotic here.
Went across to Ossymills today, as colleagues told me was a new clothes franchise in there, with fairly up-to-the-minute-goods. Yes, was rather good and did purchase a little silver cardigan number..being facile like.
Whilst I was looking around a family with a child, dashing around on a scooter ! Mother and baby, maybe two teenagers were close .. not the most desirable, if you know what I mean.
Young son (early twenties maybe) addresses me and asks me what colour I use on my hair as he thought it rather lovely .. Huh !!! for heaven's sake, I'm 64 .. and colour I put on 2 weeks ago washed out ! Was a little taken aback and meekly answered "Sorta Red Violet".
Couldn't sort this out for a while, just not normal behaviour is it ? Being flattered and chatted up by a young, lean, handsome 20 something.?
My bag is quite open and make-up bag was visible on top. (luckily purse hidden in the depths of this Pandora's carrier)
Gotta' thinking after .. this is the way I got conned in Spain couple of years ago at the market. Friendly Spaniard (that is unusual) comments to me what a lovely day, whilst partner in crime pinches me purse.
Feel certain this would have been a similar episode ... so I think beware of any strange attentions to your goodselves whilst out shopping.
Sure I am not wrong, will have a word with security tomorrow but need to share my thoughts and see if you agree and just tell you all to take care. x
