I know how frustrating these are, but I also know that I am not beyond the odd stupid question myself.
I sadly remember a very embarrassing encounter in an estate agent who told me a house I was interested in was in 'Grove Close'. I replied 'Oh, but isn't that a horrible rat run for cars in the rush hour?' Cue, patient estate agent 'er, no it is a Close. You know, a cul-de-sac'. And I really was listening!
I am afraid I also asked a seller the other day about postage costs as there was nothing on my invoice. He kindly pointed out the large words 'free postage to UK buyers' in the listing. To which my immediate response simply had to be an email stating 'I am an idiot':shame: .
And I really am quite clever and grown-up in real life!
