Marks & Spencers, a Christmas yuletide log
Word was spreading like wildfire among the staff.
I was among a pack of teenagers acting as Christmas workers at an M&S in a greater London shopping centre, and stacking shelves at the time.

There was a woman on the shop floor doing a poo.

I decided on hearing this rumour, that I was going to investigate, and trotted through to the food tills. There was indeed a small melee around a till, where yes, a woman was crouching over a green bucket, the ones normally used for the flowers in the horticultural dept.

Red-faced, she'd hitched up her skirt, and was coiling one out in full view of a rather packed department store ten days before Christmas.

She didnt even look like a weirdo. Quite posh in fact. She stood up and handed the bucket to a male member of staff, and said to the ashen faced till girl....

"I'm so sorry. I'm pregnant."

The M&S guy said, 'we have customer toilets.'

to which she replied,

"I didn't want to lose my place in the queue."

A pregnant woman can relieve herself anywhere she likes in the UK
Though a Policeman's helmet is the preferred device. Men on the other hand can only urinate on the back wheel of a car.

Oh and it's illegal to celebrate Christmas.

That's the best thing I've ever heard, ever.

Ha ha ha ha
I used to work in M&S (oh the horrors) in Kent. Why the fuck did nothing exciting like this ever happen?!
