A Rochdale woman was left devastated today after discovering that she will now be looking after her neighbour’s children for the next three Sunday mornings in a row.
Sharon Smith from the Falinge area of Rochdale accidentally asked her neighbour Paula Harrison to let ‘her know if there was anything she could do to help out’ during a chance encounter at the recently refurbished Rochdale Waitrose.
“It just sort of happened,” a bereft Sharon told us, “I tried to avoid eye contact with Paula in frozen foods but before I knew what was happening she was talking about her Dad’s stroke and it just sort of came out.”
Paula, who apparently doesn’t know a brush off when she hears one, was embroiled in a scandal earlier this year after Barbara Dickinson told her that ‘they must meet up for a coffee sometime’ and subsequently called Barbara and made her meet up for a coffee.
“She’s a monster, how could she not know that was a platitude?”
