...and what was to happen this morning, then?...well i was to check off my receipts against my latest bank statement...to find out that, like last month...a sainsbury's receipt was missing....you see - last month, it had been a sainsbury's card receipt...and this month it was a sainsbury's cashpoint receipt...see previous notes upon morrison's supermarket etc etc...
....now, seeing as machines sometimes run out of paper....which invariably happens at one of the halifax cashpoints i.e. you choose the option for a receipt but nothing happens and so you just have to walk away with your cash...
i should simply make a mental note not to take money out at sainsbury's cashpoint again (for this month)....something that i had already done - regarding that halifax cashpoint...which i no longer use.
...oh and if i can remember - i tend to make a note of when a cashpoint machine doesn't issue a receipt and put it with my collection of the month's receipts (including the date and 'how much' was withdrawn' etc etc) - so that everything adds up at the end of the month - when my bank statement comes...but sometimes i forget...which is always a problem...
hmmm...anyway, i then thought back to the sainsbury's operative that dazzlenation had taken the piss out of "i come from a long chain of lizards" etc etc...and yes, he had claimed that his family were descended from the spanish royal crown, quite a while back - now....along with that 'helen candy' number (one of her aliases had been 'karen' - CID)....oh and the 'uncle michael' lookalike, too...and so naturally, i was to wonder if any of them had been mucking around - trying to steal, in order to earn money upon the ill cult system - during this 13th one ill cult game etc etc....
....but having no real evidence of anything....for example - remember that time when that sainsbury's self-service till had run out of printer ink?....i was then told that it was 'okay' to walk out of the shop, without a receipt etc etc...even though i am loath to do that, most of the time and not because i am 'paranoid' etc etc....it is because anybody who might 'have it in for you', upon a 13th one game...could easily see you as...."game in the field - and arrest you" replies BI ONLINE....exactly, that...although nobody would be able to arrest you, would they? they would simply strongarm you into a backroom...stun-gun you, attempt to inject you with some horrible drug etc etc....do you see how it goes?...presumably you know, BI...and only too well....go figure.
...and so to summarise...two missing sainsbury's receipts, from last month and this month....it is possible that both had been 'machine' errors...as to why i haven't got either....
...add to that...the candy brothers working through the really stupid....who think that they can get away with it....but they never do...and what have you got?
hmmm....a whole load of people that MI5 have told me that they have 'cautioned'...ha ha ha....because you'd better do more than that....go figure.
...what else?...well, still upon the topic of supermarkets....this tuesday morning, i was at the fast-tills in M&S...when a man alerted security....and so loudly that the entire shop, heard...because apparently, a woman had walked into the shop....and then walked out, again, with 4 packs of steak and without paying....and yet, the alarm bells hadn't gone off....isn't that odd?
anyway, i was at one of the fast-tills, at the time....watching the whole palaver that was to ensue.....and so what can one say...but that if it were true (and why would that man be lying?)....then the culprit must be brazen, dotty, on drugs or...perhaps they had had 'insider' information as to why the alarm bells had been turned off, that morning?...or perhaps they had had a device which had ensured that the packs would not turn on the alarm bells - whilst being taken out of the shop?
...the security of buildings....hmmm....this had been my main concern, yesterday morning...regarding the 'shutdown' of belle court building's frontdoor bell system etc etc...see previous notes....go figure.
...and my sixth sense is now picking up on...that lorry-in-the-bay...in front of M&S, every morning....something that the 'scarlett-when-young-lookalike' had known about...you see they move all of those 'tagged' products into the building, don't they?...and somebody must remove those that are not sold there, before their sell-by date, from the premises....i know that doesn't make sense, as yet ....and that is because it is probably an MI6 metaphor for the 'micro(n)' and the 'macro(n)'....but i also know that you need to question those men, who run the lorry delivery service, MI5....go figure.
"the MIC - RON" as the eldest taschmann was to call CF....."you are the mic!" as in the microphone....isn't that weird?
"we'll entitle it - who's been taking steaks out of M&S?" replies MI5 ONLINE....really....steaks or shareholder stakes?
...and what are you laughing about? why is it all so funny?
let me see...the other 'problem' with clacton's M&S is that the till-assistants have all  been told to ask you, if you want a receipt....isn't that bizarre?....because it only takes a second, to print one and less than a second, to hand you one....'caveat emptor'...i am always surprised when they ask me if i want a receipt....and i tend to reply that i wouldn't like to walk out of any shop, without one 'just in case', you understand....
...besides, i like till receipts..M&S receipts often include vouchers for £5 off....let me see....perhaps clacton's M&S are losing money - in relation to....too many people using vouchers?...you never know what the bosses of a regional outfit will think up next - do you? if they are not 'on target' that is....anyway, the till assistants tend to see printing-out a receipt, as a real pain in the butt - "it takes so long" etc etc and yet, the whole operation - only takes a couple of seconds, from start to finish....they press an option upon their screen - the receipt appears, they hand it to you....do you see how it  goes?...and so why is it such a 'pain in the butt' to do it? (unless...and you know where i am going with this, BI)....'caveat emptor' - that is that's all i say....go figure.
oh and if i want to complain about the 'nitty gritty'...well, an M&S assistant was to 'tell me off' about offering a 20p coin, along with a twenty pound note...'that isn't helpful' etc etc....after she had mumbled about what i was to pay (I didn't hear the full amount clearly, only the 20p at the end)....oh and her till wasn't showing me 'in digital' the exact amount that i had to pay....however, mitigating circumstances apply....she had just switched it on...and yes, it was that early on in the morning and presumably her till hadn't 'warmed up' and so i couldn't see what the entire 'cost' was,  on-screen....and well, considering the till receipt, that i was to view, later on...the till receipt - that she hadn't wanted to give me..."do you want a till receipt" as in 'are-you-going-to-hold-me-up-for-that-long-by-asking-for-one' sort of patronising attitude and tone-of-voice...whilst the palaver around that 'shoplifter' was going on - all around us and she had been involved - asked about what she had seen by other staff....wasn't enough to put me off, wasn't enough to deter me from confirming that i definitely wanted a receipt...hmmm...did i mention that this particular till-assistant had once been roz' best friend - early days - as a teenager, in london?....in a heroin den etc etc......what am i saying here?...ha ha ha...'suspicions' aroused and not because certain individuals were acting suspiciously, necessarily - this morning.....'just something in the air' let us say....go figure.
