Actually Maureen and Gerald are clones of my lovely FiL and his not so lovely late wife! 
Fascinating causes of death 1632

Afternoon all,
Went to do my usual shop today (I don't work on Fridays) and already the supermarket was packed!
There seemed to be more husband/wife combos than usual, and an awful lot of dithering. 
Why on earth do people feel the need to block the aisle while having in depth conversations of the merits of different types of biscuits for cheese? (Apparently Maureen doesn't like "those ones" as she once had a near death experience while choking on one and can't even look at them now, but she's ok with plain water biscuits. Unfortunately Gerald doesn't like water biscuits, as they are too crisp)
Then of course there is another bottle neck 
as a decision has to be made over ruby or tawny port.
And who would have thought that buying pigs in blankets should need such careful consideration?
Give me strength!
Phoenix you should have stuck your oar in and told them to buy both because crackers are probably one of the cheapest things to buy!
