Day 175: Eggspenses

Today I go to the shops in search of ten Creme Eggs.  I need them for a job next week. 

Yes.  They are a genuine business expense.  Essential props.  (I look forward to including this particular receipt when I do my books, and very much hope that my accountant (the strangely emotionless Olga) will question its inclusion.)

I source the eggs from WHSmith (two for a pound - bargain).  Can't see them at first, so I have to ask.  Find myself saying 'Do you sell Creme Eggs?  Great - I need ten.'  NEED!  Shop assistant eyes me suspiciously (while probably pressing the bulimia panic button under the counter).

'Sure.  You NEED ten.  Probably for a job, yeah?  Do you want them wrapped?  Or open?'
