Out in the rain once more.

 Nips into Lidl.

Oh dear here we go again ...

A man had loaded up his shopping on the belt, he just stood at the beginning of it, picked up a box of coffee, looked at it, sniffed it, and put it back. I had kept my 2 metres distance. The member of staff at the till was waiting for him to pay for his items, and I couldn' t put my things on the belt until he moved. Once I loaded my items onto the belt, he was loading his things into his shopping bag so slowly, and gawping at me the whole time!

(If he wanted a picture of me, he only had to ask!)

I paid for my shopping, and while he was loading his shopping into his car.He was still gawping at me when I went past....
