A bit off topic I know, but reading about your experience with a punter in the 50's diner asking if you owned the place, I thought I would just say that I had to pop into Sainsburys on the way home from seeing friends at the beach last weekend, and I was wearing my Boater. A little old lady came up to me and asked if I could get her some breaded ham from the Deli counter! She thought I was staff!
Bless!
I can relate. More than once while in a department store, I've had someone ask if I could help them find a particular item (a couple of times I actually did without mentioning the fact that I, too, was a customer). Also more than once I've had visitors to my school ask if I was the principal.
