"Today your order will be delivered by Jesus in the Cabbage van"

You don't get the son of god delivering groceries for just any supermarket.

Does this mean the Ocado van is the modern-day palm sunday donkey?

I have that Lady Gaga song stuck in my head, this is a thread for song reminders!

Luke in Aubergine van, Mark in strawberry van. Just need Matthew and John for a line prize Grin

Satan in the Sainsburys van.

Tesco kept sending me things that were very nearly OOD so i stopped ordering, seems i got off lucky if it was Judas that was at my door. Shock

Me too Sue. I shall enjoy spitting it out in the middle of Morrisons, seeing that Ocado won't deliver here and I shall never meet Adam, or Jakub or Emmanuel, let alone Jesus in his cabbage van.

Beelzebub in the Asda van?

Ocado don't deliver here, i'm never going to have Jesus. Sad

SuePurblybilt · 03/04/2012 17:21

ooo. This is why it sucks being poor. You'd not catch the Messiah in Lidl. Sad

I am using Jesus in the cabbage van as my new expletive, ta muchly.

Just looked back at all my Ocado texts, two biblical ones:

Jakub in Strawberry van

best of all Adam in Apple van

how come mine is delivered by Rupert in a plain white Waitrose van? :(

(no offence Rupert but that is our ferret's name and he is much better looking than you)

Buddha in the Banana van maybe?

A few of thoughts:
Do you think it is possible to collect a full set of disciples?
Is there scope for a game of Bible Bingo?
Has anyone had Jehova?

I am absolutely ordering from ocado this week.

Stratters · 03/04/2012 17:08

I am so, so jealous of you all and your van driving deities. :(

emmanana · 03/04/2012 16:43

When I had Mohammed, he was driving potato van.
( I am very sad, I keep all the ocado texts )

Shame you didn't see the message before, you could have wished him luck for Friday.

cronsilksilt · 03/04/2012 16:37

it's here - green bubbles

I'm waiting for my delivery right this moment. Jesus has 25 mins left to get busy with the bread and fishes.
