Where is the strangest place you've been chatted up?
40 Answers
Bizarrely, yesterday I got chatted up, in a hospital breast clinic. (Calm down girls, he was at least 75). I arrived to an empty waiting room apart from this one bloke, waiting for his wife. He asked me if I was a patient (errr....yeah...waiting room), looked me straight in the chest area and said "I wish I was the doctor".
Shades of Sqad emerged...... ;-)
It then went on to be clear that he knew me from the surgery - he's a patient where I work. He wanted to know where I lived because "valentine's day is coming up and his wife is allergic to flowers"). He said I looked far too young to have grown up children (creep). Then he said he'd look out especially for me now at the surgery to say hello (help....!)
I would have been a bit freaked out, but it was actually quite funny. Maybe he was just nervous for his wife.... but I shall be avoiding the reception area for quite a while - I can just imagine him coming in for his Viagra on a regular basis.

a very long time ago I was in court (for work, obviously!), waiting for my case to come up, and was sitting in the public gallery. this man behind me taps me on the shoulder and whispers in my ear "are you expecting to get sent down today?" "WHAT?" "I'm going to a party tonight, and wondered if you fancy coming!"
I later told our barrister, who laughed so much that an usher came out and threatened to have us removed :o)

At the vets. I went to take my now deceased cat in many years ago and was chatted up by this gorgeous Aussie guy who'd brought his cockatoo in. Unfortunately, Snoopy had a habit of pooing in his box whenever he went to the vets and stank out the waiting room! So embarrassing. Anyway, I got called into to the surgery before I had a chance to engage in any of the name/phone number swapping :o((((
Ha ha. I got chatted up in the supermarket the other week. Was quite a laugh initially and we exchanged some light hearted banter and then he started intentionally going round the aisles to bump into me again and I got somewhat wary. He was hanging around waiting for me outside and I pretended to me looking in my bag and scuttled past head down. (He wasn't bad either and I must admit to be chatted up at 63 is quite complementary.)
Very sweet, salla....he's got a crush on you :0)
Been a few.....strangest place has to be in a darkish tunnel waiting to go on Rameses Revenge at Chessington World Of Adventures, when i went with some mates about 10 -11 years ago on a stag day/night......girls in front of us just started chatting away to us and the one i was talking too just asked outright if i wanted to go for a drink with her later that week. Of course, I declined the offer and said i was married, but was flattered.
Never could figure out how she did'nt see my ring.......dark i suppose :0)

I was in the opticians yesterday trying on some new spec's....
When the assistant walked off to find another colour, a man walked up to me & said "You look really sexy in those, they really suit you...". My daughter looked at me & smiled. I took this as a lighthearted compliment & he wasn't so bad himself, lol.
My husband laughed when I told him later!

I agree Lottie, I can't see how they warrant such extorniate prices here, when you can buy them abroad at a fraction of the price ('specially in Cyprus)!
Mind you, I do have scratch resistant, tinted varifocals, all the things that bump the price up!
Still, it's nice to be 'chatted' up at our age isn't it? ;o}

I think I am getting to the stage when I really do need varifocals Smudge!! How do you get on with them, 'cos Mr LL hates his!! The optician told me to leave it as long as possible. I am very long sighted and only need glasses for close work, but I am getting fed up with having to keep putting glasses on when out shopping to read labels or in restaurants to see what I am eating!! I go to a really good optician and then take the prescription to my son's friend!!!
Going to take the dog out shortly. Damp and miserable morning and it's so muddy all around me!!
(With apologies to Salla for chatting on your thread!! xxx)

I know, wearing glasses is a pain Lottie - I hate it!
I had perfect eyesight & could thread the smallest needle until in my late 40's, but the constant use of pc's at work & age got the better of them.
I started off with just reading glasses, then as time went on had bifocals for reading, pc & tv. I then started having trouble reading no., plates at a distance, so tried varifocals - best thing I ever did. They took some getting used to, 'specially walking downstairs, but I wouldn't be without them now!
I try not to wear them when I'm generally walking around outside shops, etc., (vanity & all that), but they are an absolute boon when I do put them back on - 'specially driving at night!
Give them a try, you may soon see the benefits! ;o}
