    Easy peelers. They're fucken not. Is there a more absurdly named object in the UK than these ridiculous mandarin replacements?

    I've said it before and I'll say it again - I'm no @Hooroo but I don't have girly hands. It takes me at least a minute, sometimes two on the ones I've been buying the last couple of months. You shop at Waitrose don't ya?

    @Bones Are you suggesting you don't?

    This could be a deal breaker fella.

    @Bones I thought easy peelers were just marketed towards kids?
    Are you storing them in a fridge? If so, don't.

    I do hate when there's too much pith left on segments. 🤢

    Maybe time to rethink parenting. Kids shouldn't be in the fridge.

    God, that's another thing which gets on my goat - bloody Waitrose shoppers who think shopping there enhances their social status.

    "Oh Tristan found some Fig & Guava Focaccia there last week. He likes to feed to the ducks".

    @Victor-Meldrew on a WhatsApp group with the missus Twells friends. Guy on there always has to mention Waitrose instead of supermarket. It's pretty funny.

    Mrs Meldrew & I actually heard a woman say this in the Saltash Waitrose a year or two back.

    "Giles, Do we have enough organic muesli on the yacht.....?"

    @Victor-Meldrew There used to be a Facebook page dedicated to overheard in Waitrose with some good ones but the addition of the yacht must trump all previous
