Old People

[scotchollie]

Why do old people always, always pay with handfuls of loose change when they get to the head of the queue in supermarkets?

It takes them ages to count it out, what with their shaking hands and poor eyesight.

And their inane banter about the price of eggs and how cold it is today slows things further still...

Honestly, can't they pay with a note and speed things up, or should we have a dedicated aisle in supermarkets for old people?

Discuss.

Oooh sellotaping "v"s is a great idea! I'll remember that for when my "w"s completely wear out.x

[johnlambert]

It's not v's + w's that are under threat, it's the x's that are underthreat,
dear god what about the x's

[Katie~77]

Thanks Katie, nice to know there are some people out there who care about things.

Three stars to you.

[Katie~77]

It's ok cascarelli, they've been washed and sterilized in Milton!x

[scotchollie]

It's a vicious cycle - and if you re-cycle a bicycle, is it still a cycle?

[scotchollie]

And poor Milton - that he should have come to such a sticky end...

[cascarelli]

Milton? Who's he???

I think I'd prefer fresh ones, please, if I was going to get any at all that is.......

[Katie~77]

Good question!!! I will lose sleep over this one you know. And at my age that's not good!!!x

[scotchollie]

Wasn't he a philosopher who invented sterilisation?

Or something...

[Katie~77]

Quite possibly!x

[Katie~77]

Kate - final warning.

Under the Protection of the Alphabet Act (1884), Section 7, Sub Section 3 (c) I really must protest about the wanton use of exclamation marks.

Such frivolous use of same is wasteful and punishable by a hard spell in solitary.

And at your age, you really should know better.

No letter of the alphabet was harmed in the writing of this post.

Oh oh, disciplinary measures required
