"I was in the SAS"

On my way home from the physio I went into the butchers to buy a steak and kidney pudding from the deli they have there.

There was a man being served so I stood behind him to wait my turn and as he paid and went to leave, he turned around, sort of did a double take and stepped backwards (effectively sideways) away from me.

"Don't stand behind me like that" he said "I was in the SAS"

"That's OK. so was I" I replied automatically.

He took a further step back and seemed worried as he looked at me "really?" he said.

"We shouldn't discuss it" I said and started talking to the doris behind the counter to order my pudding.

He left with quite a stunned look on his face.

The butcher, the serving wench and I laughed about it but I seriously think he believed me. He'll probably think twice before he says it to anyone again
