I saved £3.40 by buying last Saturday's Daily Mail for £1.10. Excellent two week TV guide and 5p worth of reading in the actual paper..

I'm right with you there. I have taken to using a shopping trolley as a barrier/ramming device, to protect me from the idiots. 
The biggest hazard I seem to face are small children running riot through the supermarkets, whilst their parents shop on oblivious to the chaos they cause. Covid or not,what ever happenend to keeping your kids under control.

I watched in horror a news clip of Christmas shoppers on Oxford Street the other day, I swear folk in that crowd would be carried along even if they lifted their feet off the pavement!

Many years ago we used to go to Oxford Street at Christmas time just to remind ourselves how much we hated it.
About 25 years ago we stopped, having convinced ourselves that we didn't need to remind ourselves any more.

hang on a minute there Al. Saturday's Daily Mail has all the cheap cruise bargain advertisements. We saw this advert in a Saturday Daily Mail and as a result went from Southampton to Sydney, and return flight, and a week in Sydney and some of the excursions, two people for under £7k. The 56 night cruise was £2995 each. £53 a night on a 5 star luxury hotel, as much as you can eat and drink included. Or about the same cost as staying in a UK camp site now . . .
