Betcha when you saw the above pic in thumbnail form, you thought "What's that nutter up to now?" However, it's not what you thought it was, it's only a sausage and there's an amusing true story behind it.
So I'm in my local ICELAND (trying to avoid PETER ANDRE over in FARMFOODS - traitor) and see an empty checkout. I ask the bored-looking assistant if she's serving - "Yes," she says - so I hand over my bag of 40 (count 'em - 40) sausages for only £2, and, as she's about to scan the barcode, a trio of women appear from nowhere (like Mr. BENN's shopkeeper) and form a queue behind me.
"Where did they come from?" asks the assistant, jokingly. "They followed me" quips I. "I have that effect on women - it's the 'links' effect," I say, pointing at the bag of sausages on the counter. Cue uproarious laughter all 'round. Sometimes I amaze even myself with just how witty I am.
(LYNX effect - LINKS effect. Geddit? Nobody around here ever watch the TV ads? Sheesh!)

All right, I've got one for you:-
I was getting my change at the checkout at Tesco's when a supervisor came up and said to the cashier, "Somebody's spilt a packet of raisins next to your till. I'm going to send a cleaner to sweep them up." As I was walking away, I said to the cashier, "She's just keeping you informed of the CURRANT situation."
Did she laugh?
Did she 'eckaslike!
That supervisor was just 'raisin' a laugh, JP.
Well after the blank reception I received, I felt like in - sultana!
Isn't that the name of a Peter Andre song?
