Blimey! Once again, the blanket of despair settles over Lazzo.

Missus said she was listening to a consumer advice bit on radio and it included the hint not to buy suitcases at the airport because they're more expensive there. Hmm... this could work: "Tell you what, to save time, we'll take our stuff to the airport, buy a suitcase and pack it there..... "

Surely the Tesco one is technically correct, as it is an abbreviation of newspapers & magazines.

That's an argument I have already heard and don't agree with.
And where are the magazines? It's a stand for newspapers.

Isn't a newspaper called a newspaper because its the news printed on paper?
....I can see how that could be misleading in the case of some publications. lol

Popped into Morrisons on my way back from work tonight. Came back to my car to see this...  He left me literally one inch of space, but parked at such an extreme angle so that his back end overlapped the back of my car by at least a foot!! There was no way I could reverse out without damaging my car. Then, after I asked Morrisons to put out an announcement in store, the cheeky tit had a go at me - I was so close to punching him!!

You need to tweet that to @yplac
Check out his timeline, very funny and frustrating at the same time.
- name contains an offensive word. You have been warned!

Heh, yeah, I'm already following that on twitter - have submitted it on their blog but it's not yet appeared on their website. Guess there's a lot of c**** about!
