Tesco sold my chicken - I am gutted

We arrived at Tescos & went straight to the cooked chicken counter and asked for a chicken to be put to one side for us (or it was hot when we finished shopping)

We shopped & then I sent DD back to get it

The lady had sold it by mistake

I have no cooked chicken for tea

I am gutted

MP have you read the thread?!

morningpaper · 05/08/2008 20:10

I must admit, when I saw the thread title I was wondering whether you had some sort of pet chicken that you had tied up outside the supermarket...

morningpaper · 05/08/2008 20:12

And look, us non-menu planners get by JUST FINE

like this:

1 hour before tea: look in garden for ideas. Pick 4 beans

40 minutes before tea: look in fridge. stare at 1 lb of cheese

30 minutes before tea: open wine

20 minutes before tea: put kettle on for Ready Brek

it is fine

I'm all chilled now

I couldn't cope with going round the supermarket again - DH normally shops & I had to do it as he is poorly

& yes I am a chicken keeper

well I'm glad they didn't sell your pet chicken then

glad you are chilling now... xxx

katy I am sorry to hear that things are difficult for you, and if my comment about chicken keepers was insensitive.

Hope you are all now fed (and wined if applicable) x

onebatmother · 05/08/2008 21:17

deeply, deeply impressed by wine and readybrek MP

KatyMac · 05/08/2008 22:16

I'm OK

But I think the Tescos lady knew how close to the edge I was from the look on my face

OP posts:
Cammelia · 05/08/2008 22:46

Did she hide behind the counter

KatyMac · 05/08/2008 22:50

No

But I think she considered it

OP posts:
Cammelia · 05/08/2008 22:54

That'll teach her to sell someone else's chicken

NorthernLurker · 05/08/2008 22:57

Hmmmm - coming soon on Mnet 'Do you think I was unreasonable to bribe the tescos lady to sell me her last chicken even though she said she'd promised it to a woman with a mad gleam in her eye?'

MrsWeasley · 05/08/2008 23:07

LOL @ northernlurker
