OMG-- I must be crazy. Went down to M&S at about 9.10am this morning. Only wanted a bit of bread and some Cheshire cheese to go with the Christmas Cake ( remember where I come from-- Christmas Cake with out the cheese is like a kiss without a squeeze !!!!
) A few grapes would be nice, perhaps a joint of beef for a treat and my Saturday Telegraph-- can't function without the GK Crossword.
The whole place was solid, people, trollies, staff replenishing the shelves and the floors were so slippery with people's wet feet it was getting dangerous.
No Telegraphs and no Cheshire cheese, so I had to settle for Wensleydale, got my nice piece of beef, some grapes and bread and managed to squeeze to a till which had just opened. The queues were all the way back through the shoppers. I could have done with spikes on my elbows as my requests for" Excuse me, may I pass through" were ignored.
Could someone please tell me what people do with all the food they buy? Unless they are feeding the whole of the British Armed forces they couldn't possibly use it all !
