What can it all mean?
» Posted on April 22, 2004 11:44 AM » Category: General

I do love overhearing snippets of coversations which don't appear to make any sense. How about this one, which I heard yesterday, between two quite attractive middle aged women:

"It'll cost you £60."

"That's OK."

"But he does listen to Radio 4 a lot."

"Oh so do I. Never mind."

What on earth can they have been talking about? I'm afraid I had to get off the bus at that point, so we will never know.

They're discussing hairdressers, I reckon. The "Never Mind" is a bit of a red herring, but I suspect she said it because she didn't want the preceding sentence: "Oh so do I". to come out sounding snobbish. i.e. Well that doesn't bother me because I'm not thick like you, listening to Capital all day.

Well, that's my guess.
