Crutches instead of a chip pan
« on: July 30, 2017, 05:51:42 AM »
I was looking for a chip pan in a second hand shop (not available in shops anymore) - didn't have any but I got a pair of crutches for $5 instead.

My family have been mocking me but I think it was a sensible purchase.

So you're frying the chips in the crutches? Or am I missing something?

Always better to need a chip pan than crutches. Makes perfect sense to me.

I apologise, in advance.

My wife sprained her ankle quite badly the other day. Walking with the aid of chip pans wouldn't help. Good shopping, Di!

Exactly, and if we lived closer, I would say please take these crutches.

I will be a mini-hero next time a neighbour needs help for only $5  ;D

Ah, but does she want to be Captain Chip-Pan or Captain Crutches?

I would never loan out a chip pan should I get one - they are as rare as hen's teeth.
