Functional illiteracy...?
I've just come back from shopping. While putting goods to a carrier bag I noticed a slip of paper with a shopping list lying at my feet. I pick it up off the ground and simply couldn't hold back from putting this shopping list on my blog. I love half a kilo of something most!:)

Good that the kid had a list at all! I waited in a cue for 15 minutes because a boy was inefficiently trying to recall what he had to buy. It was like: "ehhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhmmm, and a juice [pause] eeeeeeeeeeeend maybe chips [longer pause] eeeeeeeeeeend I don't remember" so the shop assistant started to help him: "maybe some potatoes - no - so maybe tomatoes (or whatever) - no - so go home and come back!" - she said irritated. If she hadn't said so, I certainly would!
Cheers!
'chleb' was spelled correctly, so there is some hope... I guess...
It was funny to look at that copy. I remembered how I was writing letters 15 years ago. Priceless!!
Let's hope it was written by a child..:)
