Brilliant.

One of the young people who works at the tea rooms has a Saturday morning job in a DIY store. Yesterday he arrived fresh from having a "heated discussion" with a customer and told us the tale from his viewpoint.
She was upset that they only sold undercoat in white.
It should come in other colours, she told him; there was a customer demand.
He tried to explain that she was the only person he knew of who had asked for it in anything other than white, that everyone wants white because it is, after all, an undercoat.
She said it was too glaring.
He said it would be painted over so would it matter?
She said that while she was painting it on the wall it would be too glaring.
