There needs to be a Pick n Mix for crisps. Pick 24 bags for your variety pack so you don't get stuck with 6 bags of a flavour you don't like.

Manager of Aldi: can you get that pallet and block the aisle with it whilst you put all the stuff on the shelves.

Is there a secret competition between local newspapers to see who can have the most badly designed website? Not sure how else to explain all this horrific web design.

As a huge Ted Lasso fan, I'm not happy about this. It had the perfect ending - why go back on it?
This is not a drill. Ted Lasso is coming back for Season 4. I repeat, this is not a drill.

Does anyone else find it crazy that you can walk into a bookshop and be charged £7.99 for a paperback novel that took the author a year to complete, but £16.99 for a completely blank notebook?
