-Waitrose really isn't that more expensive than Tesco for the everyday items. Sure you can go nuts but you can in the others too.
-MMmm Horse Meat! Seeing as this has been Everyday Value January for me I've probably ingested a Grand National loser at some point this month. I'm still alive.
I went to pick up a parcel tonight (it was my GAF Secret Santa, yay) and on the other side of the street were 3 young ladies going walking in the same direction. As I was walking faster than they I was on their level when I needed to cross the road to their side. Now I don't know if it happens with you fellows but I always feel a bit awkward walking directly behind a lady on a lonely street, wondering if they think I'm following them for evil purposes. I usually pick up the pace and go past ASAP so they don't have to worry. Anyway this time I couldn't do that as two of them were taking up the path, when they started whispering to each each other, then they flashed me a dirty look and crossed the road.
OMG, they DO think I'm a bastard! That left the last lass who wasn't with the others alone and defenceless against the guy off to collect his parcel. I wanted to hurry by but it's been snowing then freezing over so I was trying to march gingerly, and was very aware the CRUNCH CRUNCH of my footsteps made the situation more menacing. The girl started dialling on her mobile and started describing VERY LOUDLY where she was and could the person on the other end pick her up.
By this time we were at a crossroads and I needed to go right to the post office depot and thankfully she went straight on. I pondered on the situation. It's like when you encounter the police on the street and you feel guilty for no reason. I felt like I was a monster. I'm not, I just want my parcel!
TL;DR - I feel uncomfortable walking behind ladies for imagined reasons.
