Been watching some YouTube videos of people getting pepper sprayed. Awesome.

Maybe ebiker could use that on his grandkids as he doesn't like the idea of giving them a dam good thrashing

What a nice photo. A bit of photoshop to eg get rid of the telegraph poles and imo it would look good in a frame.

We don;t even have a Sainsburys here never mind a Waitrose!!

Shop online?, You may have to order £40 or £50 worth of Gluten Free Pudding and plenty of custard of course. 😂

Not sure Waitrose would demean themselves by having one of their vans in Widnes!!!

I suppose they may have unmarked vans for stealth missions to undesirable neighbourhoods!!

anyway - the flour we want is supposed to be available at Tesco who we do have here

Ears have been lowered.
Got the money envelopes for the grandkids Christmas gift....... apparently you can't get ones that take 2 pence pieces so it will have to be notes .

sellotape a couple of 5p pieces to a rectangle of cardboard - works well!

Been shopping this morning and couldn't believe it!
It's over 3 months to Pancake Day and LIDL are already selling flour, milk and eggs!
