I'll probably take a look in the week when it's hopefully quieter.

The car park at Aldi looks like a perfect place for a meet...

As for stalking; not really, just what ever I come across. As for everybody going about their "everyday business & making spurious comments". If people didn't do that we wouldn't have this forum or newspapers and you might end up having a life. |

Yawn, Don't you get the irony of a bloke who posts inordinatly about pedantry & pointlessness accusing others of being in need of 'having a life?' this entire thread of yours illustrates your dire need of stimulation other than internet forums. I see you even managed to get a few of your catchphrases in without a straight man to supply the lead. I'm off to do something more exiting now, such as re-arranging my sock draw. |

Yes QUOTE this entire thread of yours illustrates your dire need of stimulation other than internet forums. It also illustrates people like you jumping in to stimulate such nonsense. Pot, kettle and black springs to mind. QUOTE I see you even managed to get a few of your catchphrases in without a straight man to supply the lead. Actually I am the straight man to your dummy; so thanks for your contribution. All comedians love an audience.  QUOTE I'm off to do something more exiting now, such as re-arranging my sock draw. I doubt it; you like me enough and this forum to keep me amused. I can't see you giving up the job for a long time; if you did that would mean you would have a life... apart from your sock draw.

I popped into Aldi this morning on my way back from town for a look around. I came away with a bottle of DOC wine, a sandwich for lunch and change from a fiver. Amazingly cheap.
Mind you, I haven't tried the wine yet, but seeing as it's DOC, it should be reasonable. Approximately half the price of similar wines in Sainsbury's! |

Brilliant! That's cheaper than a bottle of brass polish and a sausage roll from Tesco.

QUOTE (Strafin @ Apr 4 2013, 07:12 PM) What's DOC wine? Denominazione di Origine Controllata. It's the Italian equivalent of the French Appellation Controlée. It means it should be better than basic plonk. I expect Andy's link explains all that. (Edit: yes, I just read it  )
