I stood in line at passport control yesterday surrounded by Orthodox Jews.

That always happens to me at airports as well.

Are they always on the move or are they watching VP'ers?  scared2:

My manager at Oxfam is a serious god-botherer.

Belief may not do her any harm but the church she is in seems to fcuk her up big style.

I have volunteered to do till duty on Saturday afternoon. But what with me werking like a trojan and the footie being on the radio I may change my mind and stay at home and get pissed whilst making pickled onions. This may mean they have to shut the shop as the safety elf sayeth they must have 2 people in place or the world will end.

God moves in mysterious ways the selfish bastard..

Ah! Charity shop nutters! 

They are a breed apart.

They certainly add entertainment to a day in customer facing charity shop hi jinx let me tell you!   cloud9:

Eee! I could start a thread.

But I wont, cos it's a dammed serious business is nuttiness. Unless it's happening to someone else in which case it can be entertaining in a guilty sort of way.

Not for me though obviously. I weep at the plight of maniacs, especially the 'Do you sell mens studs?' bloke who comes in twice a day and scares the shite out of the ladies.

Indeed. Act of god innit.

Just as an aside. Dan Brown has got more money than god.

Fascinatingly enough, Dan is in fact the most donated author to Oxfam shops and I think the second or third most purchased.

Now there is a fact you can wheel out on a social occasion and leave your audience breathless.

Of course your collar is thick leather with chrome studs and a brass tag saying "Snoopy. Battersea"

It is in fact ear studs the drunken, stinking, boring, ugly, annoying (did I say stinking?) git is after?

About ?1.50 from Oxfam. If we have them in stock like. eyes:

Braces. mens braces. We are asked for these several times a week but none are ever donated.

Is there a worldwide braces shortage that I have missed?

If you have braces (save the teeth jokes) wot you no no longer require send them to me and I can sell them for good money for a good cause.

I'm serious!
