Tesco – a policy too far.

In a world where alcohol is becoming more and more of problem, Tesco have instigated policies, that that limit the consumption of…….bread rolls. A friend of mine had a party 2 weekends ago and needed some bread rolls. He went into our local Tesco to buy 85 bridge rolls. ‘Sorry sir, you can only buy 65 rolls, its store policy’. Now we wouldn’t want anyone binging on bread would we.
But they were quite happy to sell him 10 packs of cheap lager, a litre bottle of vodka, a bottle of gin, a bottle of scotch and 6 two litre bottles of cider.
Nice one Tesco, once again you have instigated policies that contribute to the well being of our community.

Last year the second of my two cats, that we had had from kittens (from Stapeley Grange RSPCA) passed away. LaLa was 12 years old and one of the most affectionate cats that I have ever met, second only to her brother, Spikey, who developed diabetes at ten and lived another 12 months before we found that he had a tumour. Anyway those 2 little white bundles of joy brought us so much happiness and our 2 little girls missed them. Anyway, last weekend we decided to get a new cat. So after much discussion with SWMBO it was agreed that I could have the one cat that I had always wanted, a British Short Hair Blue. For those of you who dont know what one of those ‘blue cats’ is, it is the cat off the Sheba advert. Their coats are a blue / grey colour with very dense fur. Their eyes (when mature) are a golden orange colour and they have large round heads.
We hunted through the internet and found several breeders with kittens for sale within driving distance. After an afternoon out, driving and looking, we found a breeder with 2 Blue Boys, 1 Black and one Chocolate Girl. It took all of half an hour to make our minds up, so off we went to pick up a cat carrier, supplies and some cash. 2 hours later we arrived back home with our own 13 week old kitten, who we have christened Diesel.
