Oddest thing

[Mydogisagentleman]

Strangest thing you've seen today
May I present Mathilda the micropig in a garden centre in Andalucia

Well i had my asda order arrive, and for the first time ever, it arrived with NO substitution, i got what i ordered.
I felt like i had won something.

Pretty boring day. McDonald's conned me
out of a big mac last week. Gave me a voucher for a free meal. Wasn't allowed a big mac meal though. Could have any other.
Con me out of a Big mac. Do not let me redeem a big mac. My mind boggled.

I stopped using Asda about 8 years ago when I ended up with ELEVEN substitutions!! 😱

Most of which were shite really.

A kids 'Peekaboo' style book about scientists. I didn't expect to be saying "Peepo Marie Curie" today.

One of the lads at work eating a full birthday cake with a serving spoon. Apparently he went to the shop to buy lunch and it was cheaper to buy the reduced birthday cake than a meal deal and he figured it was more food for less money so why not. He was eating it with a serving spoon because we had no clean knives to cut it up with and a teaspoon would be too small.

I was digging in the garden today and as usual the robin was hopping around collecting worms. When I stood up to stretch my back it came and landed on the arm of my glasses. Oddest but best moment of my day.

I stopped using Asda a while back when they started bringing everything in crates rather than carrier bags. I have osteoarthritis in my hips and struggle to bend down properly, and the delivery drivers just dumped the crate on the step and expected me to unload it all, which I found really painful and difficult.

I'm (further) derailing, but Sainsbury's do this too - it always feels somewhat 'odd' to drop to my knees in front of the delivery guy to unpack the crates - I avoid eye contact at all costs..

Oh yes! Looks like you're praying to them! 😂

A pile of junk in the drive that’s been driving me mad for months, OH said we needed a skip for it yet never booked one. I managed to get it all in the car and to the tip by myself. Imagine my surprise!

Or worse..

A small Shetland pony just appeared in the middle of my very small town. His name was Doug apparently.

Was? RIP Doug, we hardly knew ye.

DD vomiting. That in itself isn’t that unusual, but she actually managed to get it all in the bowl provided for this purpose for the first time ever.

People unpack the crates in the hallway? I always take the crate off the delivery person, carry it into the kitchen and unload it onto the kitchen table. Are they too heavy for that from Asda?

My elderly father has been complaining about his 2 seater sofa being uncomfortable for months, it is 2 years old. Today me and my husband visited and husband removed the base lining with a Stanley knife. Inside there were 2 cling film wrapped Iceland turnips. Really confused us all as there is no Iceland in a 30 mile radius and my father is housebound. It has put the fear of god into him and now he is in car with us on route to ours.

Same, I used to get mine delivered from Tescos and took the crates in to the kitchen, tipped them out and returned them.

Oh my word!!!

Indeed....it's like some weird root vegetable voodoo going on there!😆

I went to pick up parcels today and the In Post locker was completely dead (RIP bestie). Thankfully a nice lady on the help line could unlock them remotely, leaving me squinting at the very back of the highest locker.
So the oddest thing some people may have seen today is a middle aged lady leaping repeatedly into the air, attempting to throw herself into a locker!😂

A famous street artist where I live hid £100,000 of art over Easter as part of a free art treasure hunt. It included a £3,500 necklace made with a local jeweller. It was hidden on the beach and wasn’t found until last night. Today I’ve seen people trying to find where the necklace was hidden. It’s no longer there, it was buried under some pebbles (it’s a shingle beach). I found it odd that people were looking for where someone found something.

@JohnTheRevelator @LadyDancealot I just ask the delivery driver to bring it into my kitchen and put the crates on to a stool so that I don’t have to bend ( I’m disabled)

@ShakyBake Perhaps Baldrick had a cunning plan.

”Do you have any ambition apart from the acquisition of turnips?”

i saw a boy, about 5
with a proper mullet

i also saw a french light show with inflatable objects and dancers/acrobats

😂
