    Just picking up on what you said about supermarkets Poet, do you remember when them bloody shoes with wheels were popular?! You couldn't go to my local supermarket without tripping over kids wheeling everywhere! It got so bad that my local Asda actually banned them! Why would any parent in their right mind allow there children to whizz round a very busy supermarket, causing nuisence and annoying people who just want to do their shopping. It wasn't the odd child either, I saw countless doing it!

    What are their parents thinking? :mad:

    I didn't say it:eek: it was from an online article written by "old Git"!!!:rotfl: I do agree about those wheelies though.

    At least he used the words child and chidren, not brats.....although the satan thing was a bit nasty, but overall his tongue in cheek humour shone through.
