Bored in Tesco's

[Fat Tone]

(If you don't know, Tesco's is one of the biggest supermarket chains in the uk).

This letter was recently sent by Tesco's Head Office to a customer in Oxford :

"Dear Mrs Murray,

While we thank you for your valued custom and use of the Tesco Loyalty Card, the Manager of our store in Banbury is considering banning you and your family from shopping with us, unless your husband stops his antics.

Below is a list of offences over the past few months all verified by our surveillance cameras:

1. June 15: Took 24 boxes of condoms and randomly put them in people's trolleys when they weren't looking.

2. July 2: Set all the alarm clocks in Houseware to go off at 5-minute intervals.

3. July 7: Made a trail of tomato juice on the floor leading to feminine products aisle.

4. July 19: Walked up to an employee and told her in an official tone, 'Code 3' in houseware..... and watched what happened.

5.. August 14: Moved a 'CAUTION - WET FLOOR' sign to a carpeted area.

6. September 15: Set up a tent in the outdoor clothing department and told shoppers he'd invite them in if they would bring sausages and a Calor gas stove.

7. September 23: When the Deputy Manager asked if she could help him, he began to cry and asked, 'Why can't you people just leave me alone?'

8. October 4: Looked right into the security camera; used it as a mirror and picked his nose.

9. November 10: While appearing to be choosing kitchen knives in the Housewares aisle asked an assistant if he knew where the antidepressants were.

10. December 3: Darted around the store suspiciously, loudly humming the Mission Impossible' theme.

11. December 6: In the kitchenware aisle, practised the 'Madonna look'
using different size funnels.

12. December 18: Hid in a clothing rack and when people browsed, yelled 'PICK ME!' 'PICK ME!'

13. December 21: When an announcement came over the loud speaker, assumed the foetal position and screamed 'NO! NO! It's those voices again.'

And last, but not least:

14. December 23: Went into a fitting room, shut the door, waited a while; then yelled, very loudly, 'There is no toilet paper in here.'

ROFLMAO!

I like to pull a prank once in a while but this guy is a master.

Wait, that's new to you both? I seem to have recallection of this joke since, sort of, forever (polish immigrants in the UK? )

[Fat Tone]

If murc could only ever be novel it would be even quieter.

We don't seem to get too many jokes about the Polish. That just wouldn't be British I don't think there's a deal of animosity as they by and large seem to be happy to do the jobs that the British are too lazy to want to do. I was told today (by a close friend with a lot of polish relations) that a lot of the early (as in early in the last few years) immigrants went home and now are coming back due to the worsening economic situation there.

But, who was first, the egg or the chicken???
