I've just nipped to P@H for yet more log bridges and a couple of treats for Harry (they had a nice looking LH Black Syrian female - I beat a hasty but sad retreat
).
Anyway there were a young couple there looking at the robos - I eavsdropped a bit and they were discussing how many to get (the girl wanted two, the bloke wanted all four
). I think they were inexperienced hamster owners, they didn't seem very knowledgeable.
My question is would you have talked to them? I didn't find them particularly friendly, you know the vibes you get (I think I was in their way when I was looking at the Syrians) and I think that's what stopped me. But I did leave feeling rather depressed thinking about the lack of good advice they were likley to receive from the P@H staff and hoping desperately they didn't get four in some crappy little cage. Would you have offered them advice?
The till bloke was particularly clueless - there was a large basket of new books on the desk and I asked if they were going out on the shelves (he didn't know). I asked if I could look through them (he didn't pass them over or help me). I might have bought something but he just seemed oblivious
