Rugger bugger and housewife's favourite, Thom Evans, and his unbelievably pretty missus in the queue at Waitrose.

Googled, yes stunning.

Edit: you must spend more time in Waitrose than work, how many different managers have they had since you've been shopping there!!??

P*ss off :)

It's the closest supermarket, so it's the one we're most likely to pop into. Love the stuff they sell there, but I only ever buy anything if there's a yellow sticker on it. Like the three 30-day-aged sirloin steaks I bought earlier for only £12, that are now in the freezer with (as I discovered) the 4 uneaten yellow-stickered Cotes de Boeuf that were already in there.

Seriously, though, his missus is finer than a motherf*cker. He looks like he's humming with a force field generated by his own sense of self-satisfaction.

Very very gray hair and beard nowadays, quite chubby and with a flushed face. Bimbling about in the Magazine section at WH Smiths.

Yes Das, I seemed to recall something about him being a bit weird, and he seemed to be in his own world, so I steered well clear.

There's a woman two doors down from us who drives her kids to the same school as my kid goes to, in her RR sport every day. We walk our daughter to school, because we're not bad people, and routinely see her setting off before us, and only reaching the school when we're on our way back.

Same here last year when Ted was still at primary.Woman at the end of the street always drove her kid the 3/4 of a mile, never got back before me.Now he and his sister always walk to the high school(separately).
All the kids should walk to school (or get one of those orange buses the septics have).

Also used by some bikers when going for a blast just for the sake of it.
