I used to look after a garden for an elderly couple. Every morning: 10.30, coffee in the kitchen, no biscuits. Every afternoon: 16.00, tea in the dining room , with biscuits. I don't think I've had a cup of coffee since I moved to Devon, almost 7 years ago.
That's a poor do Hosta. When we have chaps working here they get their own pot of coffee ready to set off when they need it and a home-made and/or biscuits to eat as and when. The Ukrainians who did our solar panel installation loved it as the fruit cake reminded them of home. They worked thru the day, just stopping for 10 minutes to eat. The French chaps who did the shower room build came at 9am, left at midday for 2 hours and clocked off at 5:30 on the dot and had Friday afternoons off as by then they'd done their 37 hours. They only got what was left from a day at patchwork or an experiment.

Our landscape gardeners, who also look after John Major’s garden, pointedly told us that Norma always has home made cakes for them. “Well sod that, Dave,” I said, “here it’s Tesco biscuits or lump it.”

Why are feet such a bad design? Poss and I both have sore feet now after more walking round Bordeaux - and tram trips too - and it's not like we're wearing stupid shoes for fashion instead of comfort. Speaking of "fashion" the place is heaving with women in floral, abstract, paisley and stripey jumpsuits of all shapes and sizes and 99% with the stripes not matched up at the central seams.
