Super (Slow) Market

I visited a township supermarket this weekend, which mercifully will remain nameless. I had a list of seven items in my hand. I said to a brother-in-law afterwards: "If there is anything they could be doing to slow a supermarket down, that's what they are doing." If one imagines slow, one needs to imagine slower. He said: "I went there to buy a cake for my birthday, only a cake, and it took me two hours." OBSERVATION: On the bright side, there is time for frozen foods to defrost, fruits to ripen, cheese to mature as one works one's way through the maze. Many took advantage of the opportunity to catch up on the latest talk.
