Locally Unhappy

Xmucane

Today I went into my local shop for the first time in ages. I thought I would like an icecream so I took my choice paid my money and walked out. On getting to the roadside by the shop I unwrapped the ice cream to find it fall to bits as it had melted. I go back to the shop and show them. 'Well it is a hot day and it has melted'. Considering I had been out of the shop for less than a minute I was not happy with this reaction. Next I was told that the other ice creams were OK and that I must have had it in the sun. I was not impressed with this asked for a replacement which I was grudgingly given, with the warning to 'check the ice cream before you leave the shop next time'. I don't think there will be a next time somehow.

Well I certainly won't be going to my local shop ever again!! :eek: Oh wait, I'm not from Bristol, and even if I was I still wouldn't know which shop it was. :rotfl:

I'm going to Bristol tomorrow - note to self, avoid all shops, just in case.

I find that in the shop by my local tube station the ice creams in there are all melted too! Maybe the freezer wasn't turned high enough. I'm dubious buying ice creams from local shops.

Serves you right for shopping locally and not supporting your local Tesco.

To be fair from what I've seen of Local Shops on the tele you did well to get out of there alive

I went to a local shop the other day and they didn't have a single one in stock. I even asked.

jimsmum

was it a cornetto?

Halloway

No, she went of her own accord.
