    Changing rolls

    Yesterday we had to pop and get a few things from Aldi and as always the trolley seems to get fuller and fuller the more you go around.
    So what happened to the bread and milk and teabags that was all we wanted.
    Beans, fish, cheese, butter, veg, fruit,sweets, ice cream, juice , and a large bag of rice.
    And here where the rolls change, i will pay for it you can pack the bag, well what a mess Emma made even the counter assistant said is this your first time.
    You have to give everyone a chance to do new things , but i think we will stay at our original rolls next time,

    Plus it's so easy then to pack your bag YOURSELF afterwards .

    Front it's easy to grab, back it sometimes to close to the wall.

    Had your dinner yet.
    Ok i shall carry on with this.
    On my first trip to the Philippines there was this bucket and scoop near the toilet and no loo roll, my world sort of ended there and then , well trying to find my bum with out any paper and using this scoop and fingers well it took some time but you soon get use to it.
    Anyway after we got back to England and a few Filipino friends was asking how we got on and i told them how good it was to have this water and a scoop so you could have a drink while doing your business on the loo.
    There faces was a picture and there shouting was just over the top too.

    Changing Rolls

    Seems like you're "on a roll" with this one, Steve.

    Rolls Royce , morning rolls or bog rolls???

    's what I'd wondered when I first saw the thread title ... ... until discovering you and Ems had merely swapped (shopping) roles.
