Have been living 60 years in the same house, the other day they were "unable to access my gaz" meter :rolleyes: btw no change whatsoever

have been doing this first with ALDI in 2000 who were ALLOWIING me not to have plastic bags (yes ColesWorths etc. insisted on throwing them at me, even worse "packing"them ). I have cartons and some carry bags in the booth. NO I have not"forgotten" my bags ..as I have been told repeatedly by...

I only know the one in France, Austria, South Germany and Australia but I can tell you you can buy snails at Aldi in France :ROFLMAO:

though I remember buying just the one cloth bag marked "green" which was dutifully given to me in a plastic bag. I refused said plastic bag saying "this defeat the purpose"and the shop assistant shove the plastic bag into the bin :rolleyes:

my point , they were horrible then, no difference now 😂

Years ago in the 60s when those horrible paper bags were phased out I was delighted with their plastic replacement. However within a short time realised in the early 70s that this was a nonsense and I tried to put groceries back in trolley...was not allowed, they insisted giving them to me...

well they did that in MeadowBanks years ago...only allowed in the carpark otherwise locking wheels... Emptying the trolley at the boundary and transferring the stuff just a few meters away to my car proved such a hassle that after trying twice I gave up. Surprise.... shoppers voted with their...

and if you ever wonder which ALDI.... Aldi Nord only BLUE sign, Aldi Süd has ORANGE around :ROFLMAO: ... Btw I am French and have told that story about the split between the brothers to so many Australians (in France we have Aldi Nord, which explain my interest in discovering we were getting...

2 days ago a magpie landed next to me whilst I was weeding and it proceeded to accompany me around for approx.10mn whilst I went on. I must say I was a bit dubious when it came in and landed 50cm from me wondering what could I do if it tried to attack me but stayed calm cool and collected 😂 ...

yes you would think the digital was more up to date than the printed stuff :ROFLMAO:

just last Wednesday in a group of 20, I was the only one "brave"enough to use a QR code to order & pay for my meal. Though I did not include the glass of wine as the two I saw on the "paper" menu list were not listed. On mentionning this to the bartender he advised me that I should have look...

Some of us must be teflon coated:ROFLMAO:. I have travelled the world practically since birth (first international trip train/ship, a few months old), and have yet to have any illness related in any shape or form to a hotel room (I was even born in one... my mother would have preferred I waited...

marvellous: instead of queueing at the paydesk, we now queue for so called self=servicee and then you have to wait for an assistant as the machine refuses to work

went in to buy a gadget that would support USB2 and 3 at once. Was treated as a simpleton (double whammy I am old and a woman), youngster telling me that 2 was out and all I needed was 3. Superbly ignored both "advice and youngster". Stopped at a small computer shop on my way and was offered...

Extra water did the trick most of the time, occasionally I have to take crampeeze

well worth loosing

I recycle those little soy fish in pair... as earings...collect the various colour caps (yellow, red, green and even purple). Rinse, dry them and then put some glue inside that dry clear with some glitter... kids / teenagers love them.... OK only a minute proportion of those end up like that...
