Can't you leave it all in a virtual basket and he just has to click buy? Leave your laptop/tablet on standby as well so login, click. How long do they leave stuff in a basket?

Or he could go to one of those weird big box things they have where you can pick your own food and just wave a bit of plastic in passing on the way out.
I believe there are some of them in south Birmingham.

Speaking of groceries, has anyone tried that Jack Daniel’s rye booze? Any good? I’ve got a bunch of Sainsbury’s vouchers to use up and a well-developed alcohol abuse issue.

I believe there are some of them in south Birmingham. That's always a possibility, but they tend to be pretty big and he can't walk more than a few paces. I guess he's got to chat up a nice shopping assistant, that might be right up his street. |

I really hope your 2,000th post is Mr Ten coming on here and asking how to checkout his basket online. |

I'm reminded of the guy who told his father twitter was a search engine and he kept tweeting questions. (At the start it seemed plausible but quickly degraded into Did ye? Aye...) {Edit}There you go. Take a look at Norman N. (@oldmansearch): twitter.com/oldmansearch |

It is the risk you take being a CBW. Edit: I personally say a big NO to any beer or ale with fruit in it. dangerously continental. Look, I want to drink something that tastes like beer. I don't want to drink something that's like a mouldy lemon has spent a week up an exhaust pipe. |
