Our next door neighbour got in the Bucks Herald years back. She bought and paid for her shopping in Sainsbury's, but when she got home she realised she hadn't got her fishfingers. So she called the store, but no-one had alerted the lady at the checkout. It could only therefore be presumed that the next shopper had capitalised on Maureen's careless bag-packing and walked off with a free box of fishfingers.

She sent a letter for publication, but the Bucks Herald was so moved by her plight that they sent a reporter and photographer round. I seem to remember her posing with a similar item and a cross look on her face, but that might be a false memory from all the mock-ups my brother and I made up (and laughed ourselves quite weak about).

Slow news day maybe?
