As you know I'm not usually one for posting warnings about potential scams, but I had a near miss yesterday.

I walked into B&Q and some guy dressed in orange asked me if I wanted decking. Fortunately, I got the first punch in and that was the end of that.

Those less suspecting might not be so lucky.

Had a similar problem at Kwik-fit when the cockney chap in yellow and blue asked us customers who needed rimming. I got in first though, much to his surprise...

There was a cocky waiter at our Christmas do asked my wife if she wanted stuffing.

You can guess the rest :lol:
