A classic !

Leaving a client's last night, I decide to get a black cab to the train station.  In getting in the cab, the MD of the agency of the client that I had just left rang me (we are about to start negotiations with them).  After exchanging hellos, he mentioned that they were a Oyster card travelling agency.  Well done I said - good to see an agency managing it's overheads (I still shudder about the £2k we were going to spend on flowers for a client pitch at Lowe's).  Then he mentioned that he had seen me getting in a cab - oops !.  Live and die by our procurement standards ?? (in my defence I was paying for it myself !).

Just made me really laugh.
