So I almost kinda got mugged today.

I decided since my creepers were falling apart after basically living in them for the past like 5 years (not bad going eh?) I’d treat myself to some of those slip-on Vans after critical studies.

So, I was in Schuh, I’d noticed this guy lurking around the store, specifically around this girl, who I assumed was his daughter so I paid little attention to it as I was waiting for my shoes to arrive. The shop assisstant had just brought some through in my size and had given me a couple of minutes to try them on, see how they felt etc. At this point the guy came and sat near me, with some shoes in his hand so I assumed that he was trying on a pair and wanted to sit down to tie them up, again, not paying that much attention.

I put my bag down for a second on the seat, while I stood up to see how the shoes felt. I turned around and I saw the guy carefully unzipping my bag (presumably not so I’d hear him do it), trying to feel for my purse. I snatched my bag and yelled ‘WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING?!’ at which point he just ran out of the store.

Luckily, he hadn’t gotten anything as I’d been carrying a lot of junk in my bag, such as my jacket etc so he hadn’t got to my purse, but really I should count my blessings that he hadn’t have just snatched my bag and ran, else he’d probably have got away with £5 cash, my cards, my IDs, my jacket, Emma’s hoodie and most importantly my £340 bus pass. D: Just goes to show you can’t leave ANYTHING on it’s own, because I’d only had my back to it literally for 5 seconds.

What a twat.
