So I'm going round Tesco yesterday worrying about racism and political correctness, when I grab two loaves of bread and put them in my trolley.

I notice that someone's put a bag of sultanas in my trolley, and go to take them out. Then I realise that someone's also put some tinned food and a bottle of Bailey's on my trolley. Also someone has stolen my carrier bags.

Then I realise that this isn't my trolley, and can't decide whether to start all over again or what. Then I enlist the help of two assistants and spend ten minutes going up and down the aisles trying to find it. Eventually find the trolley, and after a brief exchange, we swap our shopping and all is well. She seemed totally unfazed by this, and I'll never know if I took hers or she took mine.

Wasn't that story meant to end with your eyes meeting over the Broccoli and you both feeling a kinda spark?

Tuesday I was sat in my car having a sandwich in Waitrose car park (Crewkerne)..gent got out of car and 'bumped' door into next car (owner of car, old lady putting shopping in boot)...man apologises, smiles all round. He heads off for the supermarket - when he is out of sight, she drags her car key down the side of his car. Sweet, little old dear must have been mid/late 70's

I was genuinely shocked. Talk about revenge. You wouldn't want her on a war tribunals jury.

Slobodan Milosevic up on trial for the the Srbenica massacre might be worthy for this old dear.

Trolley rage! OK if you're feeling mischevious add a random product to someone elses basket (while they are arent looking) when in the queue. A packet of condoms is good for a standoff!

Alternatively, if you ever find you're short of an item and the shelf is bare, taking what you want from someones basket... illegal or immoral?

Another popular game in Tesco is collecting an assortment of items you don't want and leaving them
on incongruous shelves at the other end of the store.

I'm sure there's a FaceBook group dedicated to that sort of passtime.
