Aldi Voucher

[sherrardk]

There is a £5 off £45 spend Aldi voucher in tomorrow's Daily Mirror/Record - don't know if this is in addition to the one that is usually in the paper on the last Thursday of the month.

Aldi? I believe that some of my under-footmen occasionally go there (so I might pass your kind information on to them) but I wouldn't even consider letting my chauffeur shop there. (My God! The very thought of it! If the Ponsonby-Smythes saw my Rolls-Royce in the car park they might actually think that I would shop there! Oh, the shame!)

I also thought it was the last Thursday in the month,so thanks for that Sher. A bottle of my favourite for half price YIPPEE.

Good God man. The only possibility of my knowing that you might be shopping at Aldi is if I also turn-up in the car park with my Bently.

Actually, my Gamekeeper tells me that the store is excellent. Perhaps I'll pop along there; if my lad will loan me his banger.

Actually (whilst I obviously know you are both joking) the standard of cars has dramatically 'improved' since I've been going there. They're also actively trying to lure 'posher' shoppers and tomorrow have horse riding kit on offer.

I've seen people wearing pearls in Aldi :-)

>>>if my lad will loan me his banger.

I hope that your reference to a 'banger', Hans Ponsonby-Smythe, doesn't mean one of a pair of fine Purdey shotguns. You can't shoot shop assistants at this time of year, you know - they're out of season!

Seriously our local mayor was spotted in there last week. He wasn't wearing his robes and chains though.
