(not like when I was young, we were all miserable).


Talk for yourself - I had a fantastic childhood - most of the summer either on the beach or in the woods building dens (wouldn't be considered safe now)............ I had free meals at school and we were too poor to go abroad on holiday and I had totally bonkers parents - but I was very happy indeed!

May I cordially suggest he try this approach in the Whetherspoons in Peckham.

I'm confident the parents' response will make him long for a Mrs *Bob* style eye tent-pegging.

But actually I'm with Quids, your 'friend' doesn't actually do this, does he?

Bob he still has two eyes so he couldnt have met your other half, I wonder if she knows you fancy me . The thing is, everyone expects everyone to like and tolerate children. I was in Sainsbury's, the checkout woman say's are you collecting books for schools vouchers, I say 'no i dont like children' and everyone near by gasps and stares at me speechless. No humour, nothing, just shocked faces. Result for me as she undercharged and off i strolled leaving the stunned queue behind me .

    • Portable ramps are available for businesses to use in this sort of situation, aren't they? I don't know whether one would be suitable for use here, or whether they have the space to store one. Lots of people have  permanent or temporary disabilities which mean they have to use crutches or a wheelchair.
    • I can’t remember where I read that figure but this article in the Grauniad from 2023 discusses Ocado results from 2022. The average shopping cart fell to £118 from £129 the previous year. But Ocado lost £500m that year on approximately 20 million orders (circa 400k orders per week). So, averaging out to £25 lost per order. Ocado pauses building new warehouses as annual losses balloon to £500m | Ocado | The Guardian  Obviously, the £500m loss includes various factors. But Ocado has existed for 25 years and only made a small profit in a couple of those years. The rest have been huge losses. Yet it continues to raise funds and speculation sends the share price up and down. In that respect,  it’s like the UK version of Tesla. Meanwhile, the main growth in the supermarket sector has been for Aldi and Lidl, who do not deliver.
