my online shopping arrived this evening and i opened the door to be greeted by a pleasant-looking asian guy, quite good-looking around 30. we went through the usual ritual of 'this is not available, that has been substituted' etc to which i indifferently agreed, and he proceeded to start unloading the crates. even though it was dark, i saw him doing that lingering eye contact thing and basically ignored it. then, he specifically picked up a cucumber from one of the crates and held it in a certain way on a certain part of his anatomy and said to ds (aged 4) 'this is a present for mummy' - i carried on behaving indifferently (as you do) but i was completely flabbergasted. he asked me twice if i wanted him to take the shopping into my kitchen "or anywhere else" but i declined. tbh it was dark, i was alone with the dcs and i found it quite intimidating. i was not sure whether this is how they behave. i usually shop with Ocado.

No, not bored anymore after reading your post Tispity. Please do keep it going - I'm dying to hear more about the asian man with the inappropriate cucumber.

The "I usually shop with Ocado" was an especially delightful little addition to an already very amusing post.

I'd complain, at the very least they should give you a new cucumber.

Did he then take out his cock and ask you to roast it?

"bollocks. (or two satsumas) "

GeekIsGood · 26/01/2010 22:06

You should just count yourself lucky you hadn't ordered any marrows.

MumNWLondon · 26/01/2010 22:08

should def complain....

morningpaper · 26/01/2010 22:12

I would grabbed it and bit the end off

In fact usually, in these situations, it's me that ends up getting arrested

tispity · 26/01/2010 22:19

OK, dh has said that he would like to handle it so i am quite happy to pass it over to him. btw, i have binned the cucumber though i am now wondering if i needed to keep it as evidence just in case it is needed later on

Also loving Mad Old Crone - spectacular!

jaquelinehyde · 26/01/2010 22:21

And are you happy at the prospect of your DH handling the delivery mans cucumber?

SinginHinny · 26/01/2010 22:27

at responses here

What utter, utter twaddle, OP, and racist too

"have binned the cucumber though i am now wondering if i needed to keep it as evidence just in case it is needed later on"

evidence?
Are you actually Gil Grissom on CSI, tispity?

CJCregg · 26/01/2010 22:28

Let's hope it hasn't given your DH ideas ...

Paolosgirl · 26/01/2010 22:29

LOL Jaqueline

Oh, def. take the cucumber out of the bin - they can test all manner of vegetables for fingerprints nowadays. I'm sure your local police will love this one take it very seriously.

Paolosgirl · 26/01/2010 22:30

Or is a cucumber technically a fruit?

EssenceOfJack · 26/01/2010 22:31

Just be grateful you didnt order from asda.
Their drivers insist on a handjob before they unload the crates.

princessparty · 26/01/2010 22:34

' i was not sure whether this is how they behave'
LOL this is the bit that definitely gives the games away.
'Yes its standard Tesco Company policy to sexually harass customers'

lollopops · 26/01/2010 22:46

Is he coming back for dessert?

TigerDrivesAgain · 26/01/2010 22:51

I'd be very if DH wanted to handle the delivery man's cucumber. Mind you, give me the opportunity and this could be a very different post. Ocado always send me a laydee. Nice but not in that sort of way. But it is Ocado, they haven't heard of these not very nice goings on.

JustAnotherManicMummy · 26/01/2010 22:55

Is this a follow on from the "pegging" thread? Was he wave the cucumber in a manner that suggested you should use it?

zippy539 · 26/01/2010 22:56

Tbh I think the asian reference was more to do with OP's personal sexual fantasies than anything else.

lollopops · 26/01/2010 23:02

LOL @ Zippy539.

My sentiments exactly...
