Shopping in Windsor
« on: December 17, 2008, 04:49:41 PM »
Had another shopping trip out into the wilds of Windsor today... what a sad shite hole of a place it is...  noooo:

I wanted a bread slicer... couldn't get one in Cyprus so I pooped into Woolies to pick up a bargain. Bloody hell, Armageddon - what a shite hole... everywhere devastated and the only 'stock' they had was own brand hoovers vacuum cleaners and microwaves...

Then onto the shop with the hiccough girl who had no idea that I'd saved her yesterday and kept saying luvverllleeee... What a shite hole.

The onto WH Smith to stock up on magazines... found everything I wanted 'cept Private Eye (which I can never work out where they put it and why...

Barman: Can you tell me where Private Eye is please?
Shop Oik (blank look)
Barman: Private eye?
Shop Oik: Asks Shop oik #2 where Private eye is
Shop oik #2: Normally down there with the detective stuff (?)
Barman: Forget it, I'll just take this lot then...
Shop oik #2: Do you want any half price chocolate with that?
Barman: Just pack the magazines  noooo:

WHat a shite hole

Then off for a big mac for lunch... what a shite hole... rubbish everywhere, no clean tables, full of chav scum fucking and blinding all over the place... why aren't they at work? MacDs in Cyprus are immaculate places...

Then onto the Sony Shop
 to buy a memory stick for my new Blu Ray player  cloud9:

Spotty shop oik: Can I elp u?
BM: yes, I'd like a 1Gbyte memory stick for my Sony Blu Ray player please my fine young man...
Spotty shop oik: (blank look)
BM: Yes indeed.. a 1Gbyte module if you please... for live content like...
Spotty shop oik: I'll ask the manager
Manager: No such thing
Spotty shop oik: No such thing
Barman: No such thing??? My good fellow, it is a Sony product that plugs into the back of a Sony Blu Ray player!
Spotty shop oik: (blank look)
Barman: It goes in the back... of the player like... Sony...
Spotty shop oik: Leads the way to the Blu Ray player section
Barman (thinks) we're getting somewhere now!
Spotty shop oik: Picks up player... this is our player (really?)
Spotty shop oik: Turns over player
Barman: (points at slot for memory stick) There you are stout fellow... I want one that plus in there!
Spotty shop oik: You'll have to call our parts department then (hands tiny bit of paper with number)
Barman: Thanks - throws paper in bin
Barman: Orders from Amazon - £15 for 4Gbytes

What a shite hole!  noooo:

I must say, while Cyprus has its problems I consider myself extremely lucky to have escaped the UK when I did...

There are a small quota of die hard patriotic Brits in this country...including Mrs Growler...that actually reckon this country is a green and pleasant land to live in.
These people tend to be the type that brush problems under the carpet, wear blinkers and / or rose tinted glasses, believe in alternative medicine as the be all and end all, love our varied weather, hug trees, go around saying that things could be a lot worse (they will be soon), and always say, "well you should look at the suffering in Africa before you critisise this place", and bless the little darlings, they come from a deprived background, THAT'S why they shoot and stab people, bless.

Don't make me puke any fuckin' more! cussing:

If I could wind the bloody clock back....IF only  ::)...I'd have werked a damned sight harder at school, got some decent qualifications, and got myself out of this rancid shit hole of a country and over to Canada 35 years ago.
Got a mate over there who I converse with on the net, and he says he's never been so happy, AND Bears roam the streets too!  cloud9:

Oh if only you really knew what you were saying. ::)

She does have some good points granted, only I'll have to look them up in my diary from years gone by to actually quote them.

Could be worse I suppose. I do get away with 'murder' sometimes.
No mice here I can tell you. ;)

Not been to Windsor for 7 years, but it always struck me as being a fairly decent place tbh.
Things have obviously changed.

Must say, I did like Legoland, and THAT was actually where my new business idea was conceived!

I've never been to Legoland... went to the safari park a few times... mind you, that was a shite hole too...  noooo:

I suppose the dull weather doesn't help but I'm pissed at shop 'assistants' that have the personality of an amoeba and intelligence in the same ball park... I've always thought that if I had to work in a shop I'd know everything about the product and I could sell loads...

And to go in a restaurant in a tourist town that was literally filthy is unforgivable...

And eat at home.



TBH BM most of the decent folks either stay at home or have one or two (at most) selected places to go to eat/drink that they can trust to maintain their standards.
I used to have a handle on life but it broke.
