what would you say? As always (only happened 2-3 times) as I handed my cash over I said ah, Battle of Hastings. The M and S young lady said sorry, what do you mean. I explained the connection and she said I didn't do history at school.

Not unkind. To make your point you should have stuck a 1" nail in her forehead and told her about the Norman invasion. Harsh but fair.

Never wise to interact with the intellectually inferior.

I am 33 years old and I have twice been refused wine in M&S stores in the last six months. On both occasions, the woman "serving" me was at least ten years younger than me, and very ugly.

The moral of this (and canny's original) story is: do not shop at M&S. They employ thickos.

To be fair , knowledge of history is of no real benefit , any more so than knowing where Manchester City finished in 1976 .

We need to teach folk how to think and problem solve rather than fill their heads with pointless facts and figures about the past.
