I have no patience (but it's Tesco's fault)
I've recently taken advantage of some of Tesco's festive offers and stocked up in advance on some of the Christmas essentials. Only trouble is, I've already consumed three of them, and it's barely December: - Mr Kipling Mince Pies pack of six (BOGOF)
- Cadbury Roses Tin (½ price)
- Jacobs Cream Crapper Assortment Tub (½ price, with 15% free)
Luckily for me, I've hidden the Bailey's Irish Cream where I'll never find it  Back in a minute..........

I reckon it's a marketing ploy. They know if you buy early you'll end up consuming it in advance, so you have to go back and buy more!

D'Oh!
Another box of Jacobs crappers gone, another two packs of Mr Kiplings mince pies gone.
Christmas has come early in Strumland.
Now where did I hide that bottle of Advocaat from myself .......

Fear not young Steven. I'm sending, by Express Pigeon, the following items purchased at Costcutters Crazee Christmas Clearout;
An incomplete map reference
A gathering of timid people
The word "fillip"
A famous German comedian
Air from the beginning of a tube of ointment
A Dolly Parton template
A cavalry charge
Names you can't quite put your finger on
Enjoy!

Steve there is a simple solution stay away from that store, remember the owners do not celebrate Christmas because of their ethnic origins.

Careful. Morrison's insist their suppliers cater for Northern tastes. The'yre likely to still have their fingernails. (Preferably with a little coal dust round the cuticle) Tesco, on the other hand ( ), are certain to make sure they remove their tips. Phil

Save some Bailey's for after - it makes wonderful milkshakes, particularly with a good vanilla ice cream.

Arrrrrrrrggggggggggghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh It's like deja vu all over again.... In just this last week, I've already polished off a bottle of Baileys, one and a half tins of Roses, a tub of Jacobs crappers and a pack of mince pies to celebrate the Royal Wedding because I'm a feckin' pig
