I made a deaf person struggle to understand me. Unforgiveable. Sue and I went into an upmarket tea shop seeking overindulgence. The very welcoming male assistant (probably assistant manager) backed off while I spoke with Sue about which fancy gateau she wanted (mixed berry mousse, for the record) backed up with finger spelling.
Then I ordered at the desk and sat with Sue. Cakes and drinks arrived and we set about demolishing them.
