Grin

What a fabulous morning!
So in love with the sun I am (syntax malfunction) that instead of taking the motor I dilly dallied along to cast my vote.
Afterwards, with my yellow and red bag a-swinging I patted my way down many roads to Joan and the charity shop just by the car wash.
To say she was pleased to see me is an understatement, after telling me off for my absences she hugged me so tight my glasses went awry.
Lovely old girl is Joan, salt of the earth and all that but the reason I like her sooo much is that she knocks money off my purchases.
And today was no different.
50p off a realistic hedgehog and a £1 off the other item.

The other item being one of my most favourite things on earth a blue and white striped Cornish Ware jug and although I already have three this one will stand out on account of it's size. It's enormous.
I paid up, left Joan grinning and went outside

And as I dithered outside I pondered whether or not to buy a wildly over-priced green pepper in rat bag Somerfields. Sense overcame me and I didn't.

I dilly dallied home stopping only once to answer my neighbours question...
"It's such a beautiful day Brian, I thought I'd leave the car alone"
(Lazy old turnip basher...)

Monty tried to make a break for it when I opened the door, so I shoved him with my bag and he torpedoed down the hall.


My jug and Dick the hedgehog are in the middle of the kitchen table and I'm content.
Don't laugh I mean it!


Ta ta!
