[stevewool]

:yeahthat:'s probably due - in part at least - to ASDA now no longer employing "Customer Greeters" (like I was for a short while after retiring early from Social Services in the mid~90s) to cheer the shoppers up as they came through the store's [then] revolving doors, Steve.

"Perthites" AREN'T exactly renowned for being the most sociable folks on God's Earth :nono-1-1: ... but it was truly amazing how their dismal faces lit up on being met with, "Good Morning/Afternoon", etc ... and (above all!) a welcoming :smile:

And there I was ready to hear some tragic news, I was almost welling up ready to hear another slug dead on the carpet....but :NoNo: But bad enough you lost £50 in there Steve.... Emma will have to wait a bit longer for the next LV bag now :icon_lol:...................:xxparty-smiley-004:

:gp: ... television programmes don't come much more depressing :bigcry: than that!

[grahamw48]

Coronation Street....30 mins of screaming, fighting and shouting. :NoNo:

Emmerdale............. "

Eastenders............ "

Does my head in, the lot of them . :Brick:

[Arthur Little]

Coronation Street and Emmerdale ... my mum was a BIG fan of BOTH and, in fairness, each of these occasionally had their share of "lighter" - even humorous moments. But Eastenders ...! :icon_rolleyes:

[grahamw48]

In the early days of Coronation Street I was a fan also...lots of great acting, comedy and pathos.

Now, politically-correct, 'inclusive', totally unreal stressed-out nonsense. :NoNo:

Shouldn't really moan but it went on for a bit and was pretty annoying.

[Michael Parnham]

Well most of those with these scooters don't really need them at all I'm sure, if they walked instead they would live many years longer!:xxgrinning--00xx3:

True, and anyone can buy one it seems. :smile:
