Wondering whether anyone has had similar experience. We went to Southbank today, wife took older daughter to an event in the festival hall. I was left with our 3 year old daughter. Just outside there was a woman (prob early 20s, long brown curly hair, I suspect European but not sure) with a big bunch of balloons, usual set up. Daughter wanted the Hello Kitty balloon, so I approached. "Hi, how much are the balloons?" Totally ignored my presence. "Er, hello? How much for the balloons please?" Same response. Walked away and got some money out. Came back about 20 minutes later tenner in hand. "Hi, I'd like to buy a Hello Kitty balloon" Same thing. *waved hand in front of her eyes* "Hellooooooo?" (I was getting vexed at this stage( No reaction whatsoever. "This is a really shitty thing to do to kids" *started walking away* 3 Year old asks "Daddy why that lady not talking to us?" "I don't know darling, because she's a very silly and mean woman". "Daddy I want the Hello Kitty balloon" "I know darling, I'm sorry" I swear to God I could have killed the cow. I don't know if it was "art" or a hidden camera thing, but I think playing with kids like that is shit.
