You're in a shoe shop, second in the queue for the till. Behind the shop assistant on the till is a pair of shoes which you have seen and which you must have.

The female shopper in front of you has seen them also and is eyeing them with desire. Both of you have forgotten your purses.

It would be rude to push in front of the first woman if you had no money to pay for the shoes.

The shop assistant remains at the till waiting.

Your friend is trying on another pair of shoes at the back of the shop and sees your dilemma.

She prepares to throw her purse to you.

If she does so, you can catch the purse, then walk round the other shopper and buy the shoes!

At a pinch she could throw the purse ahead of the other shopper and "whilst it is in flight" you could nip around the other shopper, catch the purse and buy the shoes!

BUT, you must always remember that until the purse has "actually been thrown", it would be plain wrong for you to be in front of the other shopper and you would be OFFSIDE!

simples!

Ah but what about if you were incorrectly in front of the other shopper when the purse was thrown but did not attempt to pick it up, then knowing your place you step back behind the other lady. Another shopper picks up the purse and attempts to pass it to you as you move forward again. Would you be offside from the first phase of shopping?

I'm sure a woman could explain the concept of an own goal to Andy Gray :)

and of course she wouldn't be offside if the purse was a throw in from the side of the shop or if the queue was in the back half of the shop.
