SHRIMP SALAD

I was shopping in Alpha Rimi last night and heard the wonderful exchange

Girl: Can I have some shrimp salad please.

Shop assistant: I wouldn't if I were you.

Girl: Why not?

Shop assistant: The Chef forgot to put the shrimps in when he made it!

Bliss.

The real thing to see yesterday were the prices in the Alpha clothes shops. They have dropped seriously to levels unseen here for 10 years. But still there were few people buying. Even I just window shop now. New clothes will have to wait a while. More water in the soup please!!
