A hero

By Brian Halford on Jul 17, 08 09:42 AM

Good morning ladies and gentlemen. Not a very pleasant morning in Uxbridge - grey and cloudy with a strong, chilly wind blowing. Play should start on time though.

Already today I have met a hero. At McDonalds in Uxbridge at 7.45am a queue of punters was waiting to be served by the grand total of one member of staff - a young lady. For the next half an hour the queue was never less than eight-strong and this lady, of eastern european origin, was alone at the counter and did not have one second to pause yet she served everyone with a smile, warm courtesy and complete efficiency. When she finally had 1.3 seconds to draw breath she went and cleared a load of tables, also finding time to inquire as to whether me porridge had been acceptable!

I don't expect this person is overpaid. It's people like her that power this planet. We could lose all the politicians tomorrow.

Too true Mr H.

Did the McDonalds fare live up to that delivered at the Walsall establishment?

Aye, Paul. Nice porridge. And, most appealingly, no Walsall press conference to follow it!

Keep up to date
