    Rumour? On MSE? whatever next.

    Mentilator© is operating as we speak if you look out the window you should see your local Tesco helicoptor tracking down stray trollies using it, when it senses a rogue or maverick trolley it sends a powerfull magnetic beam which sucks the trolley to the landing gear, there's actually a live bulletin on sky news at the moment about some woman chasing her local Tesco hellicoptor to the landing pad to get her baby back out of the child seat, and three students are missing presumed "magnetised" in slough since midnight their parents have made a televised plea to Tesco to return them before they are repackaged and sold on to Calcutta as call centre staff. This has already been reported as a defect in the mentilators© ability to distinguish between gibberish and Bengali.

    Gordon Brown and Tony Blair have just announced that all traffic cones are to be recalled to have the metalic luminous strips removed and replaced with entirely plastic ones, this has been done to avoid future economic crisis as reports of thousands of missing students across the country all thought to have been "magnetised" through the malfunctioning mentilator©. The shadow home secretary was reported to have said in a statement that both Tesco and the government knew of the malfuntion before the roll out of the mentilator© but that they had had a board meeting and it was decided that recalling traffic cones would be more convenient than modifying the mentilator© and this could be done before too many students had succumbed but had forgotten to factor in the new year celebrations and the devastating effect it would have, they finished off saying that they would be expecting to announce redundancies in all of the UK universities and some closures will be taking place due to the anticipated drop in the number of attendees in the new year. I'll try to keep you posted with upcoming events but I'm busy trying to dodge this fvcking hellicoptor while I wait for a replacement plastic pacemaker.!

    I am currently revamping a cyberman helmet into memory changing device. I shall be returning to my local Tesco to ask the CS to test it as its faulty. When they put it on any memory of me r&ring previously will be wiped from their mind.
    Just got to make the head shrinking ray gun first.

    floflo would love to help you out with the trolley but my trolleys are all in use the twin trolley was very useful for my twins, granted it was a bit of a squeeze as they are 12, i tried to get on the trolley but it was no good so i have to accept what others have been saying for ages, i am off my trolley!
    Another day another R&R

    There seems to be a lot of people asking about the policy change, presumably because it was mentioned a few weeks ago that it would be changing in January 2007. Only the powers at be in the Tesco 'ivory towers' know the score with this one.

    With all the speculation flying around a very useful quote from Benjamin Franklin springs to mind:
