The wonder of the WOW tic...

I have a tic.... it goes "WOW!"... it is annoying.

Yesterday, whilst at a cash machine,... alone... or so I thought. I popped my card in and then out of the blue came the "wow!" from my lips.

Thinking nothing of it I carried on, when I heard a small voice behind me say .. "That good huh?"...

Oh dear.... for a moment I was confused, and then it clicked... he thought I was saying "wow!" to my bank balance. If only that were the truth! I just smiled politely and said "Oh no no, I just ,... ummmm, yes".
