Supermarket Shenanigans

A kerfuffle? Rambunctiousness in Roslyn? Those who were not aware of the scandal surrounding the Roslyn public toilets might have been shocked to hear of the licentiousness taking place at Fresh Choice supermarket on Tuesday. I was horrified, but only because I stumbled into the midst of it. A double take, blinking several times to lubricate my shrivelling eye balls. Free Bananas the sign said, take one. Take one if you want to be hit on by a complete stranger. I clasped my coat a little more firmly and strode off to find poof adequate for the majesty that is Patrick McGoohan. I took care to look in everyone else's trolley though, and I only saw one swinging banana carrier. Two women in tandem, looking like they had escaped from Brockville and were looking for some posh Maori Hill totty.
Actually, the supermarket seemed really empty. Presumably a lot of people are like me, and find the idea remotely creepy. My flatemates didn't. When I scurried home to tell them all about it they started grilling me about which way I carried my banana. Should have told them I stuck it down my slacks.
