I was in the supermarket checkout line buying a large bag of Pedigree Chum Dry Dog Mix, when this woman behind me said, "Oh do you have a dog?"
I had been having a bad day, so I was going to reply with a sarcastic "No..." But then I had a better idea. I said to the woman, "Well actually no, I've decided to go back on the Pedigree Chum diet."
"Really?" was her surprised reply.
"Yeah, I was doubtful about starting it again though, because the last time I ended up in hospital in the intensive care unit for 6 weeks."
"Oh my! You ended up in hospital?"
"Yeah, but I managed to lose 2 stone in 3 months on the diet, so decided it would be worth it because I've started to pile on the pounds again."
By now a man behind the woman in the queue was also listening intently. "So, how exactly does it work?" he asked.
"Well," I replied, "you just take a handful of the dry mix and keep it in your pocket for whenever you feel hungry."
