My son being onli 7 yrs old went to touch d taps n got scolding too. Juz nice as I was touching one of the pull out tap and couldn't put it back 1 middle-aged man ard 5x yrs old started scolding something like "itchy hands, touch n nvr want to buy. Seems like no $ still come in for what". That reali pissed me off i shouted back at him and i was cursing and swearing at him. After scolding him he was lucky that he didn't retaliated back if not i would have spent my whole day there shouting at him. Lols.....So guys please avoid this shop at all cost...... HIs attitude sucks and I m definitely bad-mouthing them for good. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
