@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.

Oh yeah, I forgot about all that marketing I saw for easy peelers.

Nah storing them in the fruit basket....

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

Made me chuckle

You shop at Waitrose don't ya?

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.....?"

[Catogrande]

@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

[MajorRage]

People who think where you buy your food from says more about you than where you buy your food from

[Bones]

@MajorRage sorry to interrupt you in the middle of your muesli.

Think the couple must have been stocking up for a weekend cruise on their yacht moored in Plymouth Harbour, just down the road

What the fuck has this thread become ?

British shopping habits ?

Any talk of shopping makes me grumpy which conveniently brings me to my next point.

CHRISTMAS CAROLS IN MID NOVEMBER !!!!

Fuuuuuuuccccckkkkk Offffffffffff !!!!!

[Bones]

@MN5 our neighbours have put their decorations up outside over a week ago.

Not sure where they shop sorry.

It's 7pm. Regardless of where you shop, what sort of heathen has muesli for dinner?

To be honest, I find sneering at Waitrose shoppers as sad as people who sneer at people who drive sports cars.

@MajorRage jebus, you and @nta both on the rag this week.

[Crucial]

Idiots that think scanning a COVID QR code involves rummaging in their bag, undoing their silly wallet phone case then perfectly lining up the code from a few inches away.

If I was I’d be using waitrose sanitary products so I’d barely even notice and still be able to go swimming, horse riding ....
