    On CUK she waits for some tools and some spanners to turn up and argue over the problem without actually doing anything.

      Or tries to change a tyre on an incline in the rain....before calling the man with his tools.
      Practically perfect in every way....there's a time and (more importantly) a place for malarkey.

        I'll start paying for bags when manufacturers stop wrapping food in four layers of plastic.

          Call?!? Call?!?

          If you find your tyre flat in a public place a guy appears out of no where and changes it for you in a jiffy.

          If you are unlucky you get your hands a bit dirty emptying your car to find the spare.

            What you are suppose to do at Marks and Waitrose is stand there and remove the extra plastic from goods while you are packing your shopping. Then they have to get rid of it for you.

            Don't worry about the queue behind you though - well OAPs don't.

              No. That's empty rhetoric.

              You'll start paying for bags when paying for bags is mandatory and you need a bag. Or are you going to become an audacious thief, a daring cat burglar, the Danny Ocean of Lidl, taking those precious plastic bags for free, one at a time?

                That is not how it went, sadly. I was stuck at the side of a lane in Knutsford. No one stopped

                  I can't think of anything that comes in 4 layers.

                    Ah, Knutsford, made famous by the 'Luxury Grill Room' in the Top Rank services! Well, 'rank' was a fair description anyway.
