The Boots girl
I have the pleasure of working near a Boots, and as a result of this me and a colleague often go in to take advantage of their meal deals. Over the past few months my colleague, who we shall call James (for that is his name) has been shamelessly flirting with a particular checkout girl (for anyone who works near Birstall retail park its the fit blonde one). Anyway, this had been going on for months and she would always have a little chat and a grin and blaady blah blah.

Then one day we went in and the tills had changed from being separate till queues (like you'd expect to see in most supermarkets) to those used in every other Boots in the country where you have one queue that leads to all of the tills. As a result of this James was no longer guaranteed of getting to chat to the till girl of his affections. So we queued and James ended up at the till next to hers being served by a middle aged Asian guy who neither of us had ever seen before and who we (well I) haven't seen since. As the guy served him however, the till girl looked towards James, smiled and said "Hello". "Hi" said James with a big cheesy grin on his face.

And with the utterance of that small little word, he now refuses to go back in to Boots. She wasn't speaking to him at all, but was actually calling the next person in the queue behind him...which was me...who (with arm outstretched and pointing) took great delight in loudly proclaiming to anyone in ear shot what had just happened. It was brilliant.

Do you mean Birstall in Leicester??
Is it the one near ASDA, Next McD's and Blacks etc. where the Co-Op was hubdreds of years ago?
If so I'll have to pop in .

No, Birstall near Leeds
