This lady is for turning...
It's Sunday, I'm at the pub quiz. Half the team haven't turned up, so we join forces with an older couple who are also missing a few team members.

The bloke proceeds to get a bit piddly and starts leering at my pal, much to the annoyance of his lady friend.

"You know wha'...?" he slurred, "you remind me of a young, more voluptuous Jodie Foster."

He carried on in this slightly creepy vein for a while until his partner huffily points at me and says "and who does *she* remind you of then?"

He pauses then delivered the first blow.

"Maggie Thatcher."

I choked on my pint. "What, from about 60 years ago, as a young woman?"

Then he hit me with the crullest blow of all.

"Nah, more recent."

In my darker moments I've been know to sit in front of the mirror, contemplating platic surgery just in case one iota of what he said was indeed true.

Then I generally give up and get pissed.

Length? 11 long years...
