its just a packet of lemsip...
Ok, so it was freshers week at uni and I ended up on the receiving end of the inevitable freshers flu. And I got it bad.

So off I pop to the campus shop (hey, I`m building up a nice rhythm to this story!) to get as much lemsip as possible. I pick up 2 packets of the extra strength shit and walk up to the counter where the lady at the till informs me

"I`m sorry, it contains ibuprofen (or something similar..I`m no chemist), by law we can only sell you one packet."

I was slightly taken back by this and still managed to joke "so if I went out and came back in again I suppose I`d be able to buy another?".

"yeah fine."

"oh! well cant I just walk over there then come back?"

"no. you`ll have to leave the shop first."

I pay for the first packet, leave the shop, walk back in again, pay for second packet, scratch my head.

Think this post is too long for a relatively unfunny story? Me too, but its ok I dont mind.
