HOW MEN AMUSE THEMSELVES IN TESCO'S


Proof of what can happen if a wife or girlfriend drags her husband or

boyfriend along shopping


This letter was recently sent by Tesco's Head Office to a customer in Oxford:


Dear Mrs. Murray,


While we thank you for your valued custom and use of the Tesco Loyalty Card,

the Manager of our store in Banbury is considering banning you and your

family from shopping with us, unless your husband stops his antics. Below is

a list of offences over the past few months all verified by our surveillance

cameras:


1. June 15: Took 24 boxes of condoms and randomly put them in people's

trolleys when they weren't looking.


2. July 2: Set all the alarm clocks in Housewares to go off at 5-minute

intervals.


3. July 7: Made a trail of tomato juice on the floor leading to feminine

products aisle.


4. July 19: Walked up to an employee and told her in an official tone, 'Code

3' in housewares..... and watched what happened.


5. August 14: Moved a 'CAUTION - WET FLOOR' sign to a carpeted area.


6. September 15: Set up a tent in the outdoor clothing department and told

shoppers he'd invite them in if they would bring sausages and a Calor gas

stove.


7. September 23: When the Deputy Manager asked if she could help him, he

began to cry and asked, 'Why can't you people just leave me alone?'


8. October 4: Looked right into the security camera; used it as a mirror,

picked his nose, and ate it.


9. November 10: While appearing to be choosing kitchen knives in the

Housewares aisle asked an assistant if he knew where the antidepressants

were.


10. December 3: Darted around the store suspiciously, loudly humming the

Mission Impossible' theme.


11. December 6: In the kitchenware aisle, practised the 'Madonna look' using

different size funnels.


12. December 18: Hid in a clothing rack and when people browsed, yelled

'PICK ME!' 'PICK ME!'


13. December 21: When an announcement came over the loud speaker, assumed

the foetal position and screamed 'NO! NO! It's those voices again.'


And; last, but not least:


14. December 23: Went into a fitting room, shut the door, waited a while;

then yelled, very loudly, 'There is no toilet paper in here'



... well this explains what the other half is up to when he disappears in sainsburys

Good grief! This certainly describes a worrying downward trend in juvenile supermarket behaviour on behalf of the male gender. Fella's, if you really want to get a reaction then read carefully.


When you next have a big alcohol shop (preferably at DKH as you'll have a larger audience) stock up your trolley with booze, just booze. Here comes the fun part. Put a pack of nappies or some other baby essentials on top of the mountain of crates. Find a long and busy queue. After the cashier has wrung up all the items and announces the final bill your chance to raise the stakes arrives. Say to the cashier that you don't have enough. By this time your hold up of the queue will have started to attract attention. Start looking through your pockets for more money, the mood in the queue will be growing ever more inpatient. Feign defeat and say to the cashier "You know what...........I'll leave the nappies" and proceed to purchase all the alcohol instead. The expression on the face of the cashier and the queue will be priceless and worthy of a Blue Peter badge.


You wont find this in Snopes as I was taught this wind up by my uncle.


Good luck.

A Parsnip!!! If you returned to the checkout with a Parsnip and some baby oil then I'd be inclined to congratulate you on your initiative but since you've failed to exploit the attempt to it's fullest/darkest then I'm afraid you haven't made the grade. START ALL OVER AGAIN!

    • We have had a few cat flaps over the years but none have been electronic. They just have a small clip that you turn to lock or open.  Some come with a magnet and a matching magnet that the cat wears on its collar  This prevents other cats entering.  I've not used these as I don't like the idea of a cat wearing a collar. Cats do like to be out at night and you need to encourage yours to return after a late evening sortie. Calling,rustling treat wrappers worked for ours but he seems to have now got into the habit of coming back about 9pm. without this.        
    • Having had several cats over the past 40 years - mainly rescue, we have a tried and tested routine, Initially confined to one room with litter tray/food/water - we take it in turns to stay for a few minutes several times a day so they become familiar with our scent. They are gradually introduced to the rest of the house. We have a wire cat basket and we place cat in basket and take them outside, over a few days we place basket in different areas of the garden - grass area/gravel area, patio area etc - different flowers/plants. Some of the more nervous cats we walk around the garden on a lead. They get use to the scent of the garden. We have a cat flap in the back door so they have full access - If we need to keep cat in - just block off the cat flap so they cannot escape! We are now down to one elderly cat - who during the summer just laid on the garden chairs and came in for food, but as weather getting colder prefers to sit on a worktop in the kitchen looking out into the garden. So we are back to the cat litter as she is reluctant to go out in the rain/cold.  
    • With fibre you are paying for the speed, which is the number, yours is 300 so if you did a lot of gaming, for example, you would want the fastest possible.  If it's just office work or maybe streaming on Netflix you likely won't need as fast, but, if there are a lot of people in your house all doing their own thing on different devices, then faster speeds are better.  I don't rely on my Wi-Fi much other than when I am using my mobile.  I use Ethernet cables to connect up everything, I Have one cable running from my router, along the skirtings and through a hole I drilled in the wall to another room.  I have attached the plusnet speed guide which gives you an idea of how it works.   
    • I'd reread what you posted and try to summarise.  It just comes across as a rant.
