Completely OT - Joke for Andy Hall

He was on the same show as Jimmy Carr - he introduced him.

I stand corrected.

Made me laugh.

Oh yes he would. Sainsbury's possesive; ie a supermarket owned by J Sainsbury plc (or whatever the official title might be). If supermarkets plural then it would be Sainsburys. (and for good measure if possesive and plural Sainburys' ) but never Sainsburies

I stopped buying vegetables at our nearest Waitrose (Green Street Green) as they were consistently tired and stale.

That's not true of the one we use. what source do you have for your vegetables?

You should try shopping at the Otley branch, it's superb. Even the discounted items are fresh.

Indeed he would. As I noticed when I stopped to use their sort of OK loos in Shrewsbury this evening.

They must catch it from the staff.

pedantic potatoe's and tomatoe's from the market stalls

Sorry, what belongs to these potatoes and tomatoes ?

your lack of proper English has me confused

That's a disappointment. I thought that everything was kind of groovy there.....

It's probably that they don't have the stock turnover but we talked to them and they assured us they'd change but there're only so many spongey spuds and bendy broccoli I'm prepared to eat.

Clearly they need to get themselves a little scene....

Song. Herman's Hermits. Green street green.

thank-you

Well I never - learn something new every day - Herman's Hermits were into hallucinogenics.

Green Street Green is a village near Dartford/Orpington. Last time I went there it was closed..........

Bet they didn't buy those from Waitrose

You can see its High Street here Google doesn't identify it - it's the A223. The map is centred on the Waitrose branch. Btw, the customer-facing staff are polite & helpful, as you'd expect.

I grew up not far from there, in Kemsing and then Otford.
