Nail brush

Do you sell nail brushes?

Erm, all the nail stuff is over here, on this display [points at a pyramid of colours]

But do you have a brush for nails?

Oh you mean a nail file?

Um No, it’s a brush. Quite a small one for nails.

Erm? [Cogs short circuiting]

It’s for my son, he is in construction so at the end of the day he would like a brush for, you know, cleaning his nails.

Don’t suppose you have a picture of it?

No, I don’t. But do you know what I’m meaning?

Like this? [Points at hair brush]

Well that’s a brush. So I suppose a bit like that. But smaller and less harsh? A nail sized brush.

I don’t think we stock those [this customer is clearly mad]

Ok thanks [leaves shop despairing of youth of today].
