(I am at the gym, walking down the long corridor to the changing rooms, with a random lady about the same age as me walking a few feet behind me, when my mobile phone in my handbag receives an email. A Minion shouts ‘oh, hello’ and giggles.)
Random Lady: *a few seconds later* “Did your handbag just talk to you?”
Me: “Oh, yes, it does that all the time!”
(Pause.)
Random Lady: *very seriously* “How do you get it to do that?!”
Me: “Erm, it’s my mobile ringtone?”
Random Lady: *sounding totally enlightened* “Ohhh!”
Me: *mental face-palm*
