The Curries from Sainsbury.
Posted: Thursday, 06 May 2004 |
Ellen and Beth decided to have a curry night on Saturday night for some of us after the sponsored walk.
I picked up 13 curries while I was down in Stirling. I'd been really good and phoned the store to see if they would have had a delivery in to ensure we got a good selection of different curries. The guy in the deli told me anytime after 3pm and so in I went.
The ladies at the counter were expecting me and we had fun deciding what curries to choose. And about 20 minutes later (after the talking/explaining/laughing) I headed to the checkout with my two brown bags full of curry dishes.
Up to Port Appin, bags left in the car, head to pub, then run for the ferry.... Gill took one bag, Davie took the other.
Gill goes to step onto the ferry when it happens. The bottom falls out of her bag full of curries.....
Alan, our wonderful ferryman, jumps off the boat, down the pier steps into the water and manages to pick up the curries as they float past...
Och well, they were still sealed and only wet on the outside (hey - we'd been at the pub remember).
Davie gets to the other side and just as he's walking up the car park, the backside of his bag goes. Thankfully they all land on the ground and intact.
Fast forward to Saturday Night - Ellen and Beth dished up the curries and we scoffed them....
