The local supermarket (the only nearby one) shares a site with a High School (1200+ pupils).

So, in I go at about a quarter to three for my few things. BIG MISTAKE!

Shopping done, but can I get to a till? No chance, the school has just tipped out! Hordes of pupils each with one item clogging up the self-serve tills and only two proper checkouts open.

The only good thing is that the staff on the checkouts will not serve them and move them on to the self-serve (long) queue so that 'proper' shoppers can do their business.

Come on WM you have all day to shop the kids are hungry when they finish school.

We try not to need to either leave or return home between 8.30-9.15am and 2.45-3.30pm because we live yards away from a busy Primary school.

We have to do the same, it’s almost impossible to get on or off our estate at school run times.

Oh, Kaz, I do have my sensible moments it's just that they do not always coincide with the correct times.

And so do we. Because we're a rural town, lots of kids are bussed or driven in to the High School and 3 Primary schools, and the roads are manic.
We find the best time to go shopping in the town is about half-past one in the afternoon.
