A favourite cereal cant always be considered for your breakfast meals,

its what is found when the open door of your cupboard reveals.

The Shreaddies were nice last time I ate them, but put them away,

that is a few weeks ago now, and they have started to decay.

The same thing happened to the remains of my Coa? Coa Pops,

I going to rename them, now they look like soggy flops.

The Sugar Puffs used to sound when shaken made a racket,

now they are just stuck all together inside of the packet.

I thought that cooking the porridge you cant go wrong,

but as they are a couple of years old they do make a pong.

There is still some Wheatabix there are as old as religion,

put them out on the window cill to be eaten by the pigeon.

I think I will have to settle for a slice of bread and dripping,

or boil an egg, or some toasted soldiers to use for dipping.

I cant stock up the cupboard again yet, my pensions is all spent,

most of it went on the necessities like Gas Electric and Rent.

Oh and don't forget the cost of tins food for my pet cat,

she really appreciates it, she?s left me a present on the mat.

    • Its that time of year again, past Christmas day and late delayed cards are turning up. How late are your cards arriving ?  Last year I had one delivered 4 weeks late. Can that be beaten this year ? 
    • Sadly, a lot of businesses didn't invite reviews on the EDF at that time due to a number of "negative nellies" that would take delight in posting unfavourable comments, often despite never being to the business in question.  No matter how good the place was, some posters would find fault that wasn't there "don't lile the colour of the bidet set in the private bathroom, avocado 😅" Can hardly blame businesses at the time for not wanting reviews on here, thankfully that has mostly changed now.   
    • Was that the Hare Krishna place? I can't remember exactly where it was (or maybe still is) but it was somewhere around Oxford Street.
    • The "for sale" section on this forum lets people offer things for free or cheaply. And the "wanted" section let's people ask for things they want or need, for free or cheaply. There are also existing schemes like Freecycle, and also local  food banks. And there is (or was) a local scheme where you can bring things to be repaired free. I think it is/was based in Nunhead. Isn't that simpler than having a barter system? You might have something to give away, but the person who wants it might not have anything you want. Or have I misunderstood how it works? I can see that offering services free might not fit into existing schemes, but depending on what they were, what would happen if things went horribly wrong eg someone wrecked your house? Sorry if the above sounds very negative.
