The fluffing b'stards

in Silver Bloggerslast year

I can't believe it was almost 10 years ago that Rik Mayall passed away from a heart attack in 2014.

The reason I bring up Rik Mayall the comedian was he portrayed the Conservative Member of Parmiament Alan B'stard in The New Statesman

Scratching your head yet?

Okay I went shopping today...
Actually I went shopping yesterday, and had it delivered this evening.

On seeing two products that I bought, I uttered the words The fluffing bastards!

The perils of buying fruit and veg online and not buying in store.

I will show you a few pictures and see if you can guess why I was acussing!

I can hear you now!

ehm they are potatoes Tengo... what is your fluffing problem?

Yeah I know they are, but have you read the labels cleary?

First up, the bigger bag...

Now the smaller bag ...

Did you notice that some of the potatoes in the larger bag were bigger than the potatoes in the smaller bag?

So what you say!

I agree but, the small bag is labelled ...

Did you see it ... LARGE BAKING POTATOES ... my fluffing arse they are!

Whilst the big bag is labelled ...

Talk about misleading and misfluffinglabelling!

Mrs T meanwhile was putting away the other groceries laughing at her pedant husband!

ASDA the grocery store will be sick to their back of time! I just received an apologetic email reply saying they have updated their website after I pointed an error in the pricing of their tins of tuna. They are required to put a price and a price per 100 grams. Unfortunately for them they were showing mismatches between single tins and packs of 4.

The fluffing b'stards in question

Yep you guessed it, ASDA!

This is one of the quirks being a speed reader and an ex Chemical Engineering Manager, you very quickly spot any numerical inaccuracies!

Mrs T just laughs it off, or is laughs at her husband the Pedant🤣

It is funny how we all react to different things. For me though it made a funny post and we will be having baked potatoes during the week. Now I just need to think of what filling to put into them.

Tuna from those tins of tuna are starting to sound appealing!

Thanks for visiting and enjoy the rest of your day!

That's unbelievably negligent of them! They should count themselves lucky if anyone on Hive ever buys anything at all from them in the future.

Ah well, the big supermarkets can all be the shits at times.

A mix up that Ed turns to an advantage. Why am I not surprised?

hehe because there is a positive in everything DeraDeraWoo you know I will get through to you 😁

You always do. No doubt. You and your skimmed legs. Fyi, you're owing me hair👀

hehe hair huh 😁

Yep. You have lots of it so you can share with me...

Well yes I do and yes I shall!

Woah I think I need to be more observant like you, honestly I am not label reader haha, just the expiry date I read but the other things, I'm silent enough. Such a eagle eye ✌️

Oh yeah the expiry date, well i do look at that, but also depends what the produce is, you of all people will know how long vegetables will last😁

An eagle eye lol yes in some things!

Ah... memories of watching "The Young Ones," many moons ago. Rik was always one of my favourites.

Your ASDA experience vaguely reminds me of a recent trip to local Safeway where I was very excited to have seen in the weekly flyer that onions were on sale for just $0.68. Of course — silly me — didn't read the fine print. We've been buying onions by weight for as long as I can remember, and suddenly it was onions by the EACH, which actually was a sneaky way of passing along a price increase. A pox on you, Safeway!

Good story, thanks!

The Young Ones!
An absolute classic, and whenever I catch one on the internet I am damn they are so young!
We are getting these silver hairs for sure!

Safeway oh no that is sneaky and shops do the exact same thing here. We need to read the fine print too often now!

Geez. Haha that must have been frustrating. Lol! I'll get pissed off at first when it happens to me.

haha we are alike then Cherry🤣
Salamat for commenting and have a wonderful week, and make a post na!
