With
a
few
minutes
spare
I
went
to
Aylesford
Aquatics
to
see
it
they
had
any
fish
tank
thermometers...
I
never
learn,
do
I?
I’ve
been
going
to
that
shop
every
few
months
over
the
last
six
years,
I
usually
find
the
experience
was
an
utter
disaster,
vow
never
to
return,
forget
all
about
it,
and
go
back
for
another
really
bad
episode.
I
remembered
how
bad
the
place
was
as
I
walked
in
and
all
the
staff
(but
one)
were
standing
outside
listening
to
someone
or
other
regaling
the
tale
of
some
fight
that
he
had
had
recently.
Apparently
whoever
this
person
had
been
fighting
with
was
absolutely
covered
in
blood
at
the
end
of
the
scrap…
Meanwhile
I
stood
at
the
counter
and
waited.
And
waited.
As
I
waited
so
the
queue
grew
and
grew.
After
what
seemed
to
be
an
age
I
told
the
assembled
queue
that
what
I
wanted
could
be
bought
far
cheaper
on-line,
and
I
walked
out...
straight
past
all
the
staff
who
were
showing
no
sign
of
coming
back
in
to
the
shop
to
do
their
job.
I
don't
deny
the
people
need
a
break
from
time
to
time,
but
do
they
*really*
need
to
leave
so
many
customers
waiting
for
quite
so
long?
I
got
to
work,
and
ordered
a
fish
tank
thermometer
from
Amazon
for
a
third
of
the
price
that
Aylesford
Aquatics
wanted
