Anyway, at the till I noticed a couple of business cards. One was for the restaurant itself; the other was this:
Hmm, free telephone consultations for what?
Well, on the other side it says this:
So you can get free telephone consultations for ... makeup design?
Hmm, well I suppose that is a mobile phone number, therefore you could send an MMS so you'd have some basis for your free consultation, but still...
I showed the card to my wife and younger daughter, but they didn't think there was anything odd about the business model at all.
I'm so glad I'm male; it must be awful for things like this to make some kind of sense.
[I decided not to censor the contact details on the card, by the way, reasoning that they were being given out to get publicity so I wouldn't stand in their way. If you want cosmetic services in East Anglia, look no further...]
