It's a bad photo. I had to take it with my phone. I was holding the 'few things' I had popped into Coles for. People thought I was a bit nuts, juggling toilet paper, 3 litres of milk, cat food, tim tams (yeah, I fell for the special ploy), broccolini (what we used to throw out as underdeveloped/bolted broccoli heads when we were growers, they now market and sell), Bonds socks - three pack and tonic water - to try and then, with arms full, (really should have got a basket) to try and take a picture.
What was it that made me carry out such madness?
Status Quo.
Once, they were cool. Long haired, hard rockers. I would bet my arm full of shopping that they had done their fair share of groupies, Jack Daniels and white powder in their time.
Now they are sad old men, trying to make a bit of money by selling out their famous hit to Coles.
There, at the checkout, you could buy the CD of Status Quo singing Down, down, prices are down for $10!
That's why I had to take the photo! No-one would have believed me otherwise.
Now that is just sad.

DeleteThey're not new to selling themselves out- they did quite a few episodes of Coronation Street about 5 years ago.It was really awkward and weird and dorky.
