A cunning plan!
Posted by dulwichmum on Fri 12 March 2010
Apparently, until the beginning of the 19th century, a trip to the mental asylum was considered to be an excellent source of entertainment for ladies. How incredibly crass… The thought of this unkind sneering simply make my head spin (sigh).
There are times when my own home feels like an abode for the tormented (whimper). James has been forced to pass up his bonus again this year, share prices have fallen through the floor and the coffers are far from bulging…(gulp).
When will this damn age of austerity end?
This week, instead of skipping around Waitrose, tossing the contents of their organic charcuterie, patisserie et fromage counters into my trolley, I shall instead be found perusing the isles of… Asda (gasp). Bear with me on this, it will be an absolute scream!
I shall enjoy observing the customers of Asda at close quarters (smirk). What a hoot! I went to Sainsbury’s in East Dulwich last week, and couldn’t help but notice that their clientele resembled a Thriller flash mob. OHMYGOD!!! I laughed my socks off, from one side of the shop to the other!
Why not join me?
Rest assured, that the premium brands I prefer will continue to find themselves in my trolley (naturellement), however, my raison d’etre is to enter the new Andrex – “Win Your Mortgage Payments/Rent For A Year Competition” (to the value of £12,000). Clearly, we only have a token mortgage on our capacious home, but any money saved through winning this competition, can be diverted to the purchase of a couple of handbags, a pair of shoes or two and perhaps a beauty treatment. Hurrah!!!
The promotion is running on special packs of Andrex, in Asda stores from 15th march. Simply sign up at at www.andrexpuppypoints.co.uk/asda, enter the code on the inside of pack and you will qualify to one free entry to the competition.
The Rules are:
Step 1 – Buy your special promotional pack of Andrex from ASDA stores from the 15th of March (for one week only).
Step 2 – Go to www.andrexpuppypoints.co.uk/asda and sign up
Step 3 – Enter the code on the inside of pack and you will qualify for one free entry into the competition.
Normal blog service shall be resumed on Monday when I will be Trojan free.

Hey! ED Sainsbury’s is my local supermarket! We don’t look like Thriller flash mob people!! As for the asylum, I used to work at the Bethlem in Beckenham, where the ‘ladies’ used to go. If you look at the ‘artists impressions’ from back in the day it’s actually quite sickening now

Dear sweet Luschka,
sometimes it is so difficult to take personal criticism, but it is always worthwhile taking time to reflect. Do you wear alpaca, Peruvian hand knits sweetie? Are you Caucasian, yet sporting dreadlocks? Do you depilate your underarm hair? The answer to these questions may explain your selection to work at the said mental institution.
Why not buy yourself one of those Venus ladyshave razor thingies. Realise that paganism is a lifestyle choice and perhaps shop for underwear at John Lewis or Peter Jones, just like the nice ladies of Dulwich Village. It will open up a whole new world. Primark is actually unethical you know. Brush your teeth too sweetie, you will feel so much better.
You need to join the eastdulwichforum.co.uk – you will love it! Head for The Lounge, sit back and enjoy!

I always buy consumables first and then the loo roll right at the end …… somehow it completes the circle nicely …… and be careful in Asda Mumsy – it’s very easy to be seduced by their clothes ……

Oh Daddy dear,
I feel that you have somewhat overshared. Do you think that Asda stock Marc Jacobs and DVF?
