    Ha, I feel your pain!

    I used to live near Asda in Bedminster, Bristol... a rich source of jokes for Russell Howard...... and all true! Things I have witnessed in there:

    - 2 tramps sat in the booze aisle opening/downing as much spirits as possible before being dragged out by security
    - countless people shopping late at night (or early in the morning) wearing slippers & dressing gown
    - 3 pikey ladies using (but not buying) the make-up in the cosmetics aisle...... I honestly think they were doing each other up for a wedding!!!

    Love it!

    Not been into an Asda for a while, but did work in Tesco for a bit. terrible place. We had a case of expensive bottles of wines, whisky etc. going missing and couldn't work out why, so we had an extra camera put in on the wine aisle. One day all became clear: a large of generous proportions came in wearing a long skirt. She picked up a suitable bottle, then pretended to drop something on the floor. She would then put the bottle on the floor, squat down over it, pick up her car keys or whatever it was she had dropped and then walk off. very slowly.

    I thought you were going to say IKEA,have you ever been in one of them,never ever ever again.When i'm shopping i like to wonder off in my own direction,not following a line of where they want you to go.I nearly lost the will to live in there.Needed a stiff drink as soon as i got out.It nearly put me off shopping,i'm scared for life.:eek: and don't eat the swedish meatballs they were fooking horrible Yuk.

    Ah, you need to have the stiff drink before you go in. Mind you even then, it is only just about manageable. As for the meatballs, I am surprised that they can call them meatballs. Is there meat in there?

    I love those Ikea meatballs with chips and gravy. Can’t say I feel the same about the store though. Hands up who has been and NOT come home with something you didn’t go for and will never use….. No I didn’t think so.

    I've been there once, to get new furniture for a new shop we built. Bloody weird. After half an hour my boss and I turned into a married couple, bickering, arguing and finally sulking and trying to ignore each other while sharing a shopping trolley. You know the routine guys. Fortunately, the restaurant had run out of everything vaguely Scandinavian by the time we got there.

    Mate of mine worked in Asda, told me that a fella took a dump in one of the isles as he was a diabetic and couldn't wait.
    Also two young twenty somthing girls came in about 3am very drunk with no shoes on or tops on, security told them they had to put their shoes on for health and safety, quality, you just couldn't make it up.

    They built a huge ikea on the grounds of Bristol rovers old ground about 15 years ago. So after about 6 months went there, needed to go back and have never returned because I dislike the place so much
