I paid my money and left the shop, in total shock because the dreadful customer assistant helped me - shocking, I am not used to help.
Now I shall go to that horrible coffee shop 'Gino's' in Fremantle and drown my sorrows with a coffee or something.
And the sight of those cockatoos in the trees is offensive and to be frank (I dont know who Frank is but today I shall be him), I am going to complain about the scenery.
Then, when I get home I shall poison my system with a cold beer and then cry because it really is a bad life.

It's all relative, I'd rather live in Chernobyl than Swansea for instance.

Re: FAIR PLAY.. OZ IS IS BLOODY HARD WORK!!!
Me and tiddler were in a shop today and obviously the rain was coming down like stair rods. Assistant was chatting - cheeky cow and then offered me a plastic bag to shelter us on the way to the car. No it's fine, the car's only just up there. Don't be daft she says and goes off and finds the biggest plastic bag you've seen, cuts it up the middle so it makes a perfect shelter for both of us to stay dry to the car. Did I ask for it? Did I hell :curse:

Today in Morrisons the girl that served me didn't say hello or goodbye. She just siad "Do you want help packing?" and "Cashback?" in a bored voice whilst inspecting her nails.
Poor thing - I felt awful disturbing her.
Anyway Oz sounds awful. Don't think I'll bother
