    4) Stick it in your boss' bin on a Friday after he has gone home for the w/end - I knew a guy who once put a 'pint of prawns' shells in his 9 - 5 boss' office bin on a warm friday evening.........

    Maybe its just me....

    :rotfl: no its not just you, I once put 2 or 3 meat/tuna sandwiches down the back of my bosses radiator in his office.. He couldnt work out where/what the smell was on the monday.. all the factory lads had a good laugh as they were in on it:cool:..
    he took it in good humour though and got revenge by popping a steak into a box file on my shelves (one that never got opened!)
    I spent all day searching!! lol

    My mum knows all about my bargain hunting and she couldn't wait to tell me about the bargain gloves she got the other day.

    Me: "Let me guess. 4p?"

    Her: "No, they were reduced from 4p to 2p"

    I couldn't believe it until I saw it. Someone at Ts actually whoopsied a pair!!!!

    Nope, but I guess it's easy for you to label me as such just because I have different views from you.

    I guess what confuses us is why, given you've only made 99 posts in 4 years (ie an average of 25 a year or 2 a month) you come to a thread you rarely post on and expend your 6 monthly ration of posts defending someone you don't know.

    Perhaps I'm being too cynical???

    I once worked ...strange but true fact number 1 at a pie factory in the S.Wales area and was in charge :) of pouring the jelly from a large stainless steel bucket into the pork pie machine , after 3 weeks or less I turned veggie ...hell of a place .
    the memory is hard to shake .

    Was that at PP??

    I did that too, our neighbour must be about the same age. I was actually quite surprised he did not have bigger feet as he is quite a tall and well built gentleman. ;)

    I went round tonight with a sack of spuds I got for 40p and a half shoulder of lamb £2.50ish. I like to see him smile, his wife has been very unwell lately and is lucky to still be with us. :)

    My neighbour always asks too, what do I owe you. I laughed one time when I gave him couple of bags of nuts and said well you can give me the 2p if you like. Tonight's whoopsies is probably the most money I have ever spent on them, and he didn't actually ask I think he is so used to me saying I got it for free or pennies. :rotfl:Of course I would not have taken anything anyway so it doesn't matter. ;)

    That is such a lovely thing to do. x
