Eavesdropping, eternal free entertainment

You know its true. How many of us out there love to sit over a coffee, tea or a glass of wine and watch the world go by? I know I do and its quite funny some of the conversations you overhear or even the body language of an interaction at the next table.

I bet at one time or another you overheard part of a conversation and found yourself imagining the rest of the story around it. Of course what we imagine is probably completely absurd and unrealistic but entertaining all the same.

I remember sitting in a cafe with my aunt and we noticed this couple having coffee. Both had wedding rings on but were a little hesitant to hold hands. First we thought maybe they just aren't that public about their affection for each other. But then of course Colette and I started trying to figure the situation out. By the end of it we had decided the couple were just starting out an affair and so wanted to be all over each other but were terrified of how to act in case they got caught. We also said they were plotting where their next rendezvous would be when our thoughts were interrupted by two kids one about 5 the other around 8 running up to them shouting mammy, daddy, look what I found!!! Needless to say we were a little disappointed but great entertainment for our coffee break!

So what about you out there? Ever watched someone walk past and wonder what their story is? Or overhear someone's conversation and imagine how it plays out. Well loads of people have, you're not on your own out there! Check out overheard in Dublin, Cork, Ireland, New York, even in the office!

Watch this video, its hilarious and I guarantee you'll pay more attention to what people are saying around you!
