Weighing his own Veg in public doesn't sound appropriate

After Yubep slated Poole last week for his inability to use the self service tills I decided to check out (geddit ?) the great man in action.

He was in Asda about 5 o clock and I couldnt fault him. He has a lovely smooth bagging action and was even weighing his own veg.

To be honest, with a bit of coaching he could probably get a medium salad through as a small in Morrisons . :shock:

You stalking him Chip? refyellow

To be honest after Sunday he couldn't get any worse.

First off he had his headphones in, school boy error whilst shopping if you ask me, it doesn't stop anyone talking to you n you always miss the first bit of the conversation.

Maybe not playing for a while had made him a bit anxious as he was putting 1 item through before he'd even bagged the other.

He got a roll of the eyes from the self service helper.

I don't think he's anywhere near Morrisons check out standard yet.

Elvisc is an expert when it comes to self service in Morrisons n especially salad boxes, over to you...

Isn't his celebration in a surfs up Hawaiian style not a metal thing?

I saw the lad fill his Audi A4 Cabriolet up with petrol recently, and I have to say he had the air of a seasoned pro about him. Nonchalantely, bordering on arrogantly, selected the pay at the pump option and effortlessly dispensed the fuel into the petrol tank. What impressed me most was the way he finished it off, a couple of little wiggles of the pump whilst still in the filler hole, then as calm as you like he twists the nossle so not a drop was wasted. Lovely action. To top it all off he seemed to request his receipt whilst still filling up. Bloody genius that.

The lad's got class, and he managed to scan his Club Card too.

Steve Howard doesn't even have a Club Card so.......

Just hope word doesn't get out about his Petrol situation and we can fend off interest from other clubs.

I'm not convinced that paying at the pump is necessarily Premiership class. If he was using an ordinary debit card and hunched a bit while he put his number in he could be from any level of the professional game. You'd need to know it was a nicely designed credit card with a big limit on it before scouts from the top clubs would pay you for the info.

Using those stupid gloves is a clear sign of OCD though. Irrefutable proof that he is heading for the very top and a salary that means salad box sizes and extra buns just don't matter anymore.

So whats the deal with getting a salad box through at a cheaper price? Im presuming it weighs the thing and therefore if you have heavier items such as pasta and stuff in then its not possible?

What really boils my piss about salads is this, you ask people if they want salad and they say yes, then they don`t touch any of it, next visit you say, " you don`t want salad do you"? and they say yes please and fucking leave it banghead

I have to say, the salad swervers are mostly rotund :o
