Yay, heating is now back on! But my feet are still not warm so I've turned the foot warmer on!
My first Saturday job was in a greengrocers - we weighed everything out into brown paper bags and charged by the lb. We also added the customer's bill up on a notepad and worked out the change ourselves. The shop door was always open and it was freezing in winter.
I remember Sainsburys when it was just a shop - the assistants patted the butter into an oblong shape before wrapping it up. Mum used to buy us some processed cheese as a treat - we loved it - it was wrapped in silver foil/paper.Our local shop sold dried fruit in paper bags - it was weighed in front of you. I also remember one shop that sold biscuits loose - we loved the broken ones which were a mixture and also cheaper to buy
Oh that, hmmm I tried to shorten the open space but instead did the opposite, LOL.
Lottie, I remember notepads too!! Glad that the heating is working again. I have a foot warmer in my bed. Otherwise I will be up all night with cramp in my calfs.
Oops, I do hope I used the correct word. I thought the offspring of cows was written as calves. Guess I remembered wrong See, that's what you get with foreigners

Right, that's the room moved round at last! Can now hook the sky box up to the hub to set up the On Demand service.
Glad the heatings back on Lottie! But don't forget you have the foot warmer on when you go to stand up and walk!
Flower-you keep baby cows in your bedroom-or are you sleeping in a stable like baby Jesus????

Ok, signing off to do some shopping.
Probably or even possibly


There is now a layer of frozen water on the car windscreen-the thumping continues
