Popped into Waitrose this pm.

Also joining me in the car park were a DB7, a 996 and an A6.

Kind of beats the jalopies found in other car parks.

Depends where it is.

Waitrose in a sthole is going to be nothing special. However my local in Cobham is packed full of tasty metal

au contraire...if they were really posh they wouldn't be taking the DB9 down to waitrose, the help would be doing the shopping for them....

Although I do admit that I shop in Sainsburys or M&S as my only other choices up here are Asda, Tesco, Lidl. Have you ever been in Asda on a Saturday afternoon? Well if you're planning kids any time soon go have a wander around, you'll get a great laugh at what not to call them.

Love Waitrose - wouldn't shop anywhere else out of choice. Also some tasty machinery is often parked outside...

Funnily enough, Mrs Lady Muck smacked her door off mine, and glared at me. The temptation to tell her to feck off and not hit my car again was great.

BUT, better yet, she came back and smacked her trolley off the Jag she'd parked in front of, then, just to make sure, she wheeled it along a bit further and scraped it off the bumber of the jag again.

Bentley convertible at Tescos the other day. Someone said they thought it was the ex-wife of a very famous, very rich football club owner who may or may not live near here and may or may not have a thing for ludicrously long yachts, allegedly...wink

what you need is to see the Canary Wharf Waitrose car park. Every third car a porker!

class and flash cars/money are not necessarily perfectly correlated...

Very true indeed, as I think my post about the old rupert cow who thought I should apologise to her when her car door smacked into mine!

Isn't that supposed to be Wednesdays, nationwide?

The nearest 'corner shop' to me is Waitrose. I like it, but Sains's had the beaten hands down on fresh bread.




Jesus, I'm getting old.

Likewise. The quality is good but we only go there for odd things during the week. The 5 mile drive to Tesco saves about £30 on the main weekly shop.
