£150 trainers and a £3 shopping trolley
I'M queueing in Iceland in Bridge Street to pay for a single bottle of orange juice.
In front of me is a straggly line of unwashed scrotes, reeking the place in their Bri-Nylon 'sweat' shirts (i.e. shirts soaked in stale sweat).
But hey, look at those brand new Nike trainers they're all wearing!
It takes them forever to pay for and 'bag up'their assortment of Mr Kipling Cakes, Iceland Six Chicken Pies For 1.50 boxes, Cheapo Cola bottles and all the other hideous guff that masquerades as a balanced meal round these parts.
What I want to know is... who's funding their lifestyle?
How come they can afford 'big shops' in Iceland? And 120 top-of-the-range Nikes?
They're obviously off home to unload this junk, then probably loll around watching Deal Or No Deal... while folk like me do all the work, get taxed to the hilt and subsidise their disgusting lifestyle!
Where the hell did I go wrong???
