Me and mine had a ding dong about shopping trolleys. He has no patience whatsoever. Wish I could leave him at home, but I can't drive. Granny |

Chris, It is as you say. I was not being rude or intolerant, just telling it as it is. My wife and I often talk about this. We hope to be able to retire in the next five years or so, and we have avowed that we will only go shopping on the quietest of days, and never on a Saturday morning, provided of course that the shelves are full and there is fresh produce out there. Whether we will or not remains to be seen....! It is scary, since we are turned 50 and we both have started doing the grumpy old man / woman thingy....! |

I used to take over 70's shopping on a Saturday in the Access Bus because they lived too far away from a supermarket(Morrisons 5 MILES AWAY and no buses). That was the only time they could go because the Access bue was booked. We found that the worst culprits for carrying on were the kids who would run round the store and bump into the OAP'S. I am in my late 50's. The worst culprits for me is our own age group because they stand in the aisles chatting for ages but if you ask them to move especially when I pushed a wheelchair with my OAP in they would give dirty looks, My answer to the looks was ''Wait til you get to this ladies age'' One of my ladies was in her late 90's.

Hi, I have turned into my 50s and also a grumpy old woman. If you can choose your shopping day, Monday afternoon is usually quiet but the best is having Tesco deliver it, order it on line at your leisure and have a nice helpful person bring it to your door. (Tried to get my dad to order his through my computer but he was having none of it!!) Chris |
