    Am I getting old?



    We went to Waitrose cafe...

    I wanted a bacon roll - they said they've run out.

    I said "how can you run out - don't you have shelves full of bacon"?

    All I got was that open mouthed fly catching look - only a spotty 18 year old can give.

    I then said ok can I have some Kenyan coffee sorry we've run out of that too...

    I don't believe it!

    Am I asking too much?

    I expect it in Asda.... but not in Waitrose....

    Obviously sent an email to customer services - I'm hoping for some vouchers..!!

      Forget about it and move on!

      And YES you are getting old - but so is everyone else.

          There's no cafe in the Waitrose in Wilmslow.

            There's no need to be that offensive!!

            Although my neighbours do hate me - they are public service types, all GREEN and bicycle clips!

            Whereas I enjoy a good tyre burning in the back garden on the weekend ....

                  The court heard Darren Upton had written a letter to Judge Sally Cahill QC saying he wasn’t “a typical inmate of prison”.

                  But the judge said: “That simply demonstrates your arrogance continues. You are typical. Inmates of prison are people who are dishonest. You are a thoroughly dishonestly man motivated by your own selfish greed.”

                    This is general. Were you expecting me to be nice?

                    Though perhaps as you live in Sheffield I should feel sorry for you and be nice.....
