  16. A nice lazy start to the day (half ten get up), a bacon and tomato butty and two coffees. After such a perfect start what can possibly go wrong with the rest of the day? Now for a leisurely stroll around Tesco's.

      As soon as you said 'leisurely stroll round Tescos' my mind was overwhelmed by the sound of a critical third down play at an NFL play-off...
