Tickled pink!

Today's newspaper informed me that B &Q, the DIY store,  are preparing their staff in advance of this week's film release, 'Fifty Shades of Grey'.  Based on past experience, when the book was first published, there was an increased demand for certain of their products and managers are now being asked to "monitor stock levels of rope, cable ties, masking tape and duct tape to ensure that supplies do not run low".
I popped into my local ironmongers and was pleased to see they are currently stocking "An All - Purpose Handy Coil of Strong Rope."
