Not quite so funny I'm sure, but here's an example of why I don't ask Rob
to go to the shops for anything more complicated than bread, milk and
cheese :-)

Asked him to get me 2 x 375ml cans of light evaporated milk for something I
was making. He came home with 2 x 400g cans of full fat milk powder... and
he'd asked someone in the supermarket for help! Who, I wondered - oh some
young guy packing shelves.

Solution - printed out a picture of the right product and sent him back to
the shop :-)
