Not to put to fine a point on it, say I'm the only bee in your bonnet make a little birdhouse in my soul.

The canary in the attic by the light switch, WHO WATCHES OVER YOU, make a little birhouse in your soul.



No you're not Anna, and if huguenot sees this, he'll be smiling too!

Hmmm...I don't remember saying hello either. My first post was this joke:-


This little lad is peddling down the street on his bike in Belfast when he gets hit by a car doing about 60 miles an hour.

An old woman rushes over to him and sees that he's really badly injured.

"An ambulance is on its way my son," she says. "Do you want me to call for a Priest?"

"No thanks Ma'am," says the little boy. "Sex is the last thing on my mind right now!"

my first post was a gripe against bad manners and I never introduced myself, profuse apologies to one and all!

Was a silent observer for a while until the urge overtook my self control, and I'd wake in the wee ( well doesnt everyone of a certain age?) small hours with the register icon flashing in my mind , I fought hard, but eventually gave in to the compulsion which is now the EDF ...

    • Fair enough point, but does that not in a way make it even worse if they open a shop almost directly  opposite another "family" business selling exactly the same type of products?

The movement to delivery rather than physical shopping during Covid has I believe substantially changed the grocery economics. So it may be that the High Street dynamic for physical shops has now changed. 
    • ..... thinking about the discussion about Chango.  Their "About us" blurb on the website says started by one Argentina guy.  So if one person has a successful business and goes on to open a number of shops when do they go from a supported successful "family" business to a less liked "chain"?  
    • I used to buy a brand of olive oil called 'Il Casolare'. It was unfiltered, often on offer in Sainsbury's and came in a really nice bottle with a stopper. When it was finished, I'd soak the label off, fill it with Morrison's own-brand vermouth and use it for cooking as it lasts longer than keeping wine open. One night there was very little else left to drink, so we got into it - I told people it was a difficult to find artisanal brand I'd brought back from Barcelona and that it should be pronounced 'Vermut'. People loved it. I gave away a couple of bottles as Christmas presents the next year.
