Bags of Shopping

22 Replies

I've finished all my shopping,

At the checkout I've arrived.

My car is in the car park,

With stacks of bags inside.

I never can remember,

To bring these in with me.

So once again I find myself,

In a quan-da-ry.

If I buy more blasted bags

I have this terrible thought.

There'll be no room out there in the car,

For the shopping I've just bought.

I know the feeling Don as I do this all the time too. One day bags for life will take over the world. I watched an old clip on Britain's Got Talent and this comedian made a song about bags for life. Simon Cowell was a bit confused until another panelist explained what they were! He obviously is far removed from the real world. x

That is so true, we are always doing that, me and my partner, well, more me really, as I seem to concentrate on my breathing more often than not, that I forget everything else. Brilliant.

Thank you Janet, I enjoy writing it especially when I get a response like yours. :-) It's part of my fight against senile dementia.

Another good one Don that we can all relate to, I am now trying to thin these bags out and recycling them at the supermarket, although I was glad to have a spare in my trolley a few weeks ago when a young mans paper bag broke, think he was relieved his eggs survived ha!

in reply toIzb1

Talking about breakages, I didn't realise that there was an art in packing the bags when I did remember them. I find I have some very strange shaped loaves of bread when I get home for example. :-o

Luckily my hubby very organised has the bags ready to ho and i have 2 bags that roll up so go in my handbag .Think the thougjt of paying more for a plastic bag have something to do with it. It's been said going up to 10p a bag.
