What makes you grin? Antidote to grumpy thread

Not a laughing matter ,I know , but this did make me laugh.

Tescos has launched an action against Period Poverty where any woman needing the necessary items, just has to ask for ā€œthe white envelopeā€ at the information desk. (I thought we were supposed to encourage openness on such things but this is terribly coy).
Only trouble , they announced it nationwide despite just being a pilot in a few stores , and didnā€™t inform staff very well.

Cue, women asking for ā€œthe white envelopeā€ , being told to try the Post Office!

text from doctor - you need to make appt after we got letter from urgent care doc

you also need a blood test

rang them as it wasnt the gp - they said no itll only be a blood test (im expecting an x ray also)

they asked when would you like appt? they picked the furthest away in the area - but then changed their mind in the same sentence :DĀ -Ā ALL other blood tests have been a letter thru the post with whatever notice
