It;'s payday and Sophie is in the shopping centre spending her paycheque, she's having a hell of a day .......... she just found a jacket she's been after for ages for £10, a pair of killer heels half price in the sale and a "to die for" bag at a bargain price. As she's in the queue waiting to pay for a fabulous top her phone rings .....it's the hospital to tell her that her husband has collapsed and is in intensive care and could she get there as soon as possible?
Sophie explains to the woman on the phone that she is a queue and will get there as soon as possible but it takes her ages to get to the checkout and by this point she is thinking about the great day she is having and of course doesn't want to ruin her lucky streak so she decides to do a wee bit more shopping before heading to the hospital.
FOUR hours later, Sophie remembers about the phonecall and jumps in a taxi to the hospital where she is greeted by a female doctor who raves at her "you carried shopping didn't you !! while your husband was here fighting for his life you decided that another pair of shoes was more important and went to the next store didn't you !! well I HOPE you are proud of yourself because while you were having the time of your life your husband clung to life but is now a vegetable !!!! for the rest of his days you will have to feed him, change him and look after him as he were a newborn........ you ought to be ashamed!!!!!!"
As the realisation of what she had done hit Sophie she began to cry, the female doctor took her hand and said .......
"I was only joking, he's dead ...........so what did you get?"
