Two evenings a week I visit our closest "Lidl" supermarket.  I was there again last night, stocking up on vital supplies. My trolley wasn't even half full so it was a bit of a surprise when the checkout lady announced that my bill was £90.79 "Hell! The cost of things really is going up isn't it?" I muttered. Amongst other items, I had picked up two bottles of wine, a bottle of vintage English cider, four cans of IPA beer and some salmon so perhaps these more pricey items had pushed the bill up beyond normal expectations. That's what I was thinking as Clint whisked me home. I put the shopping away and then marched down to the local pub to see my old mate Bert. It was only when I got home and plonked myself in this swivelling computer chair that I decided to check my till receipt. Nowadays many shoppers don't bother with till receipts but this little tale should act as a useful warning to them. Everything on the till receipt seemed to be in order...

The Repair Shop

I adore The Repair Shop  What’s not to like ? A motley group of sweet experts who fix people’s dreams by repairing their broken family pieces in a single swift effort to connect old grief to some sort of comfort. It’s lovely And a real sob fest Today we had King Charles, publicising his passion for apprentice work in the bespoke arts and crafts and it was a joy to see Jay Blades chatting away to him as an old mate, hand on shoulder. King Charles is a nice guy With passions of worth    from Going Gently https://ift.tt/1Nw7QMh
