Supermarkets that leave trolleys of plants outside the shop and don't water them.  Such a shame, think Aldi is the worst offender round my way.

Oooh, you really ought to watch a fantastic series, called The One Show.  Without issuing too much of a spoiler, the plot is that it involves a whole load of unnecessary and inane drivel being spouted, for no other reason than to waste even more of your finite time on earth....

Yes.  Absolutely agree with you.

I don't understand why staff don't get into trouble.  Surely  these supermarkets must lose a lot of money when all the plants they buy in are just left to die?

Think you can watch old episodes on catchup.  As of today, there are 3,772 episodes.  I suggest you watch all of them do you fully understand all of the nuances.

I'll second that. 

A lot of my t.shirts have shrunk as well.

Maybe we wash them in too hot a wash, Scrumps.  :wink:

Not sure if supermarkets have taps and hosepipes (trip hazard??!) in the vicinity of the plants.

I find that my clothes shrink as we approach Christmas, and then curiously return to their old size through the summer months.  Must be something to do with humidity.😬

Mine used to do that. One year they didn't return to normal and had to be replaced. Wasn't a one off either. No idea what causes it.

Women who drag their men shopping in M & S bra department !!!!

People who shop in pairs, and both stand dithering in front of the shelves/cabinets! 
Its not how old you are, but how you are old. 💖

Yep. 

I came across that very thing about a month ago in M&S.   There he was,  sitting there in the opening to the changing rooms for ages.    I bagan to wonder if his missus was even with him!   :grin:

I don't know why the men do it.   You'd think they would rather wander round the departments rather than sit at the bra changing rooms, wouldn't you.
I wouldn't want to sit there and wait while men were trying on their underpants! 


(Yes,  I know they can't really try their pants on in shops).
