...LOL, yeah Ruby..I would go to the shop to get a packet of tobacco and some mints for my granddad..(because he thought that my mum wouldn't know he'd been smoking his pipe if he had a mint afterwards..)....I was really young, not even a teenager and they always sold it to me because they knew it was for my granddad...when secretly I could be smoking my pipe on the way home...actually I probably was, so that fooled them and it helped granddad to give up smoking as well....
