I just said "Sausages"

So, yeah...

I just said "Sausages" in the stupid, growly "That's Life" 'talking dog' voice (you'd have to be old to know what I'm talking about) to the Ocado delivery man, and now I can never order from Ocado again.

I don't know why I said it. I don't think I've ever said it out loud in my life before. I was about three when it was on TV and didn't even know I'd stored it in my brain.

I glanced in a bag and saw some sausages and it just came out.

Delivery man was quite young and fit and looked at me very briefly like I was mad. And then didn't react at all - which was worse. We both sort of pretended nothing happened.

"Sausages". In THAT voice.

Thank you for the best laugh in ages 😂😂

I just said sausages in that voice to the dog and he looked at me like I was mad, then went back to inspecting his nether regions. I need to up his training.

I am wheezing laughing in a Muttley way...also have to be old to know what I am on about there as well. OP I actually read the title of your post in exactly that voice even before I opened the post so nowt to reproach yourself about . Its a perfectly normal thing to do Grin

So did I! 😁

Please add Typhoo to your next order and say "you only get an oooo". He will have no idea.
By the way I work with a youngster who has never heard of Phil Collins (lucky them).

Redglitter · 18/03/2024 21:26

Woahthehorsey · 18/03/2024 21:28

I read the title in my head in that dog voice before I even opened the thread.

user50and · 18/03/2024 21:28

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 OMG that has made me laugh!

CarterBeatsTheDevil · 18/03/2024 21:39

This is the first time I have wanted to be an Ocado delivery person 🤣

CarterBeatsTheDevil · 18/03/2024 21:40

Two words for your next delivery, OP: Gold Blend.

HurdyGurdy19 · 18/03/2024 21:43

Oh, I think we need to compile a shopping list for the OP's next order, so she can thoroughly entertain the delivery driver when accepting her shopping.

I'll go with R Whites Lemonade, Kellogg's Bran Flakes and a 6 pack of Cadbury Flakes.

Patrickiscrazy · 18/03/2024 21:45

It's alright, OP!
I do similar things, they just happen sometimes!
Definitely order from Ocado again.

A ‘youngster’ at work asked to use my calculator at work the other day.

’course you can Malcolm’ is what I replied to the poor, bemused 23 year old.

I say that all the time! It’s one of my favourites!

ShelleyCarpenter · 18/03/2024 22:09

That’s hilarious, OP. I got it from the thread title too

Turkeyhen · 18/03/2024 22:12

PurpleSealion · 18/03/2024 22:21

Is anyone else, saying, singing or doing the skit with every post.

I need a wee now.

BioHive · 18/03/2024 22:22

ive got a running joke about sausages, not sure exactly what caused it to begin with, but i think it was to-do with requesting a sausage sandwich

MzHz · 18/03/2024 22:23

There by the grace of god go all of us @SlightlyJaded

we're here for you 🤣

lennylion · 18/03/2024 22:28

Oh good lord. I'm having flashbacks to the time I got R Whites lemonade in my order and did the song and dance as I took the crate to the kitchen... Smile

ginandbearit · 18/03/2024 22:32

Oh yeah and put some Shake n Vac in your next order too..it'll put the freshness back ..

MoonWoman69 · 18/03/2024 22:34

ginandbearit · 18/03/2024 22:39

Shake n vac ...Oops already done...there's so many classic adverts though of a certain time I can still sing and say many many years later...will be muttering them to my last when Alzheimer's gets a grip ..
