Shopping today was a right pain Stopping in aisles, searching again Trying to guide useless trollies Buying stuff like chips and lollies Strained up high to the topmost shelf Drained all my strength, frazzled myself Standing in line to pay the bill Landing back home, ready to kill.

Many thanks, Andrea. I do like a rhyme with a little bit of humour helps to brighten the day. Cheers
