Barnsley Women Advised To Put On Extra Pair Of Pyjamas For ‘Big Shop’ As Cold Spell Continues
2018-03-02
Barnsley women have been advised to layer up on their nightwear whent food shopping as ‘The Beast From The East’ continues to hold the area in its icy grip. Locals, who typically visit their local Lidl – or Aldi if they’re feeling flush – in flimsy jimjams and open toed slippers, are being urged to don an extra pair of pyjamas or an extra thick dressing gown to beat the chill.
“” It sounds a right pain in the arse,” said Tracy Chavster from Wombwell, when we caught up with her by the boil in the bag section in Lidl, looking like she’d just got out of bed “if I’ve got to put on an extra layer I might as well chuck on a pair of jeans and sweatshirt, comb my hair, and look like a regular human being as opposed to a stinking skank. I’ve already had to put some Ugg’s on this morning because of the snow. The government ought to do something.”
A spokesman for Lidl said he’s noticed a change in behaviour in recent days, “We’ve even had some local women coming in coats, “he said “you can still see the pink flannelette bobbly tat underneath, but it adds a welcome air of sophistication to the place.”
