I had to share this one.

Consultation this morning.  80-odd year old brought by family because
not looking after herself.

<Thinks> ....  Time for a mini mental state.

She coped OK until we got to serial 7's when she didn't appear to
understand the question.   In an attempt to make the issue clearer I
said  "If you go into a shop and buy something costing seven pence and
you give them one pound, how much change do you get?"

Quick as you like the answer came back - "Nineteen and fivepence"

Case closed.

Pete
