All ears
While I was waiting at the photographers yesterday, I witnessed this : a portly gentleman came in a great big rush. Panting up to the counter, he asked for his passport photograph done ASAP.
The photgrapher in question looked up through his spectacles and crinkled up his nose and pointed to the gentleman's white shirt. Shaking his head he informed him that in a white shirt and against a white background, his face would look very funny positioned in limbo as it were. So he suggested a light blue shirt at best. The gentleman was about to leave when the photographer told him that his ears wouldn't be seen.
What do the ears have to do with this? asked the man getting more and more agitated
The photographer elucidated : A new Govt requirement is that a person's ears should be visible in the passport photograph.
With the man's heavy jowls covering his ears he had no option but to tape some blue tack behind his ears so that they stuck out in the photo! But what does he do at Immigration and Customs when his ears hide behind his jowly scowl?
I woudn't be surprised if he hijacks the plane!
