I don't usually GG a very rare occurrence, my stress levels normally go through the roof, I must have been in a good mood cos I had bort some flowers for my mum for Mother's Day.
Dear Flower Bird, I am sorry if I upset you so badly though you see I do have an excuse. I do know most of the check out girls in the two supermarkets I use and usually they see me coming and smile with "Oh at last some one I know will not blame me for all their woes, money problems, lost loves, OH getting drunk and depositing supper on carpet etc", we smile and chat whilst I quickly make everything disapear into two bags I always have ready and have my wallet out with cards loose ready to pay, a cheery goodbye and gone. Probably the fastest packer on any till, I leave the poor check out girl to the next customer who will be steaming from the ears and take it out of her/him just because they are there. They cannot escape as we can and a smile is far better than steaming to a boiling point over a bit of chat. Now people who pack it all away slowly, then search through three bags for a purse or wallet, then cannot find their cards, have to put the card in the slot six times as they forgot their pin, now that makes me boil.

i have just discovered that, under 'my reviews' I am down as having reviewed 1256 plants! I've actually reviewed 2.
Ah, I see. Thanks, Flowerbird. Glad you had a nice time at the supermarket, btw.
Hi all ,what I hate about big supermarkets and Hard ware stores is "Bar codes" oh for the days of stick on price labels ,

Yes, food for another rant - non-removable removable labels.
The plant reviewing system has been weird for some time now, but it's the same for everyone!
Thanks, everyone. Flowerbird, you have my sympathy. Hope your Mum likes the flowers and has a lovely day.
