Margaret

In a department store, an elderly lady asks me the price of a high-hanging handbag.  It is small and beige and is made from the skin of a faux-reptile.  It has been reduced from forty-nine pounds to nineteen pounds and ninety pence.  She is grateful for my help.  I ask for a middle name in return.

She chuckles.  She is wearing a pair of gold-rimmed spectacles.  On her feet are a pair of well-worn red loafers.  Her hair is white and curly.  She tells me her 'second name'.  I thank her for her help.  She smiles broadly and turns back to consider her possible purchase.
