Encounter in Tesco

[poliphilo]

We were in the Pembury Tesco this afternoon. Ailz was joking with a pleasant-looking old gentleman about not wanting to run him over with her mobility scooter. "Just as well," he said. "The last time someone ran me over I shot him."

Turns out he used to be a South African policeman.

Sounds more Texas than Tesco to me.

This is a famously genteel part of the world, but scratch the surface...
