Yesterday I had a customer come into the store asking about car wheel cleaners (most customers know me for my car cleaning antics). So I told him Valet Pro Bilberry Wheel Cleaner.
H says he’s been using a wheel cleaner that does a great job, names it, then says it is getting more expensive.
I tell him yes, it would be a good wheel cleaner as the one he mentioned is acid based and damaging over time. He doesn’t quite hear me as he’s already talking over me. So I say again.
He asks about the Bilberry and I tell him it can be diluted down 8:1 for lightly soiled wheels and neat for heavy soiled wheels (again he’s talking over me).
This goes on for another five minutes that feels like an hour.
This customer tried telling me once that WD40 removes scratches. I told him it doesn’t, the WD40 makes the surface look wet which means the light isn’t catching the scratches in a way you can see them, they are still there and will become apparent after the WD40 has dried off or been washed off. His reply, ‘well I sold the car I was selling because the buyer couldn’ t see the scratches’. Idiot.
Here’s the chicken tikka masala I just made.
Heavy on the chicken, heavy on the tomatoes and borderline on the dried chillies I used.

He’s one of those that asks a question, doesn’t like or understand the answer so says your answer is wrong and he’s right.
All the while your thinking, ‘if you think you know the answer, why are you asking me!?’.

That’s about right.
Actually there was a point I was getting annoyed with him not getting the whole acid thing that I said, ‘right, listen, I’ll say it once more, are you listening, it’s... an... acid...’.
Okay not very customer friendly but....

It was, I left some of the tomatoes in quite large chunks with the skin on for extra texture. Though I borderline nearly over did the spices as it was a little of the warm side. Warm but not numbing.

I’ve still some left.
Hmmm, maybe chicken tikka tacos would be a good idea.

Well, as I am in the US, I personally dont think I will be there prior to your finishing it. But if I am ever in the area, count on it.
Dont be pissed if I pick out the tomatoes though....

Lol. Well I put paid to that idea.
It’s 3am and I just went downstairs to put out the recyclables and noticed a slight burny smell. Long story short when I had the curry simmering for a few hours, I didn’t notice the gas was still on the lowest setting and the curry turned into lumps of chicken in a very firm paste.
There wasn’t a lot in there, just enough for a sandwich or a roll so I haven’t wasn’t much.

First thought; what on earth are you doing up at 3? Whenever I do that I am highly frustrated...
Second,
LOL! Glad to see I am not the only error prone human around. Enjoy. Got baseball on here and a Crighton book, time to call it a night. It is 930 pm here, alarm is at 530 am. Good timing for me.
3 am???

I work nights, have done for years, so even when I’m not working, I’m still on that routine.
Take care and have a good night mate.

chopped up a chicken breast, chucked it into a wok, browned, then added starwood's tikka masala stuff in a jar, then put onto a plate of basmati rice
