    Raid the bins at the back of Tesco/Sainsburys/Lidl etc. I've done it before.
    I shot a vein in my neck and coughed up a Quaalude.

    I laugh like hell!!!! :rotfl::rotfl:

    maybe a few more days of being hungry will get you and your OH to pull your fingers out and actually start looking for jobs instead of waiting till you've been on the brew for 6 months and get free help starting another daft business that both of you are to clueless to run properly...

    or you could turn into freegans? plenty food in the supermarket skips of an evening if your that desperate ;)

    And if that doesn't work, you could burn him to keep warm (after eating the choice cuts).

  • Pinch one, then you'd have something to sell and the pious would leave you alone.

    I've been round the back of supermarkets at night a couple of times. Years ago, a bunch of us went round there when one guy found out about it.... so all a bit of a lark. But, seriously, if I were hungry and it's wrapped, why not.

    One lunchtime about 20 years ago I'd bought jacket spud and a topping at a chippy and they were served in a polystyrene lidded box, ones that "do up" by twisting the loose bit of polystyrene at the front into the hole. When I'd finished, I did the lid up, got out of my car, popped the box in the bin, got back in the car to finish my drink ... and a tramp popped out from behind the chippy, lifted my box out, opened it ... and walked off eating my leftovers :)

    Chipolatas aren't choice cuts.
  • I like this one.......
