Have you carried out a successful con? Perhaps you hustled a few quid off a stranger, or defrauded a multi-national company. Or have you been taken for the wide-eyed, naive rube that you are?

Roses selling guyBest bit of business I've ever seen. We were in a Chinese restaurant and the man selling roses comes in, and approaches the table of annoying drunken loud businessmen on the next table, who'd been pissing me off all night. He tries to flog them 'St George's Day England Roses' (as it was St George's day) and offered them 3 for £5. They drunkenly agreed, and someone got his wallet out. Then the rose seller jumps in with 'Or, I can do you 5 for £10'. The drunken business guy jumps at the idea and pays up.
I nearly shook the rose seller's hand. The drunk guy even gave me one of the roses as I was female and within 4 metres of him.
