But the prime minister wandered into a caf for a cup of coffee to a decidedly frosty reception when he was told to get in line by an acid-tongued waitress. If that wasnt enough, when he turned tail the premier was given a ticking off for taking his custom next door. Mr Cameron was visiting Plymouth for Armed Forces Day when he stopped at The Sandwich Box Plus in search of a pick-me-up. Caf worker Sheila Thomas failed to recognise the Tory leader and told him she was busy serving other customers. I didnt realise it was him at first, she said. I was in the middle of serving a customer so I was running around trying to do something and didnt take too much notice, to be honest. He asked if we served takeaway coffee and I said, “Yes but Im in the middle of serving somebody” and he said, “Im so sorry”. It was only afterwards somebody told me it was the prime minister. After a ten-minute wait, Mr Camerons aides popped to Warrens bakery next door to buy the peckish premier a jam doughnut and a cup of tea. He sat outside in the sunshine before heading back inside The Sandwich Box to pose for a photograph with teenager Josh King. But Mrs Thomas had words with Mr Cameron when he returned. He came back in afterwards and I told him off for not getting a coffee here, she said. He shook hands and was very pleasant. The incident comes after other recent forays into the real world backfired. Last month the prime minister left his eight-year-old daughter Nancy in a Buckinghamshire pub after a Sunday family meal. And on holiday in Italy last year, he was forced to carry a tray of drinks to his table when a waitress told him she didnt have time. He left without tipping but returned later to make amends. 【新闻快讯】 英国首相卡梅伦日前在咖啡店买咖啡时吃了一名女店员的“闭门羹”，他被要求排队等候，不要插队。 上周末，卡梅伦前往普利茅斯出席军人节庆祝大会。一到市区，他就要司机把车停在一家咖啡馆门口，下车买咖啡。卡梅伦到柜台前要女店员席拉给他一杯咖啡。并未认出首相的席拉表示她现在很忙，正为其他顾客服务，要求卡梅伦排队等候。 在等待10分钟还没买到咖啡后，卡梅伦的助手赶紧到隔壁面包店买了一个甜甜圈和一杯热茶拿给首相。 卡梅伦在店外喝茶时，有不少民众认出首相，并和他打招呼。
