Another tales from the supermarket - Aldi.
As I pushed my trolley into the store, an elderly man came up and put his empty shopping bag in my trolley. He was saying something that I couldn't understand and I though that, maybe he wanted my trolley as he couldn't get one for himself. I asked him if he would like my trolley, and he looked horrified "I thought you were my wife!". I was still unsure whether he'd lost the plot, so I told him that I wasn't married. We laughed and I trundled off with my trolley.
When I looked round to see if he was OK his wife had arrived. Admittedly, she had the same white hair as me and wasn't very tall, however, she must have been in her 90s!
I had a chat with them and told her she should keep an eye on him as he'd been chatting me up. He's always like that, she said, I can't control him - to which he said, "I'm 96 you know".
I'm sure I've met a 96 year old man in Aldi before - either that or all the oldies shop there.
