I was walking through the Chantry centre (it would be a covered shopping centre if there were any shops) and was not wearing a mask, as it is not required to do so there, when some nosey old bat stopped me and asked why I was not, my reply was not well received it seems...
All I said was "medical reasons", would she take it at face value?? no she would not, so I thought I would elucidate for her..
Apparently " I have a small fever, a niggling cough and shortness of breath" was not an answer she was expecting....
Anyhow she scuttled off in a hissy fit, and I discovered something wonderful being done by our Government.... FREE FOOD!!
it seems that on mondays, tuesdays and wednesdays, all food in participating cafes etc is half price..... One full English breakfast later with extra Hash browns and Fried bread, (Mrs H had extra hash browns and poisonous toadstools disguised as mushrooms) we only paid for 1.... result....
might go shopping a bit later next monday too!!!
Anyway the vehicle passed it's MOT and only cost £132 this time.... not bad for an 03 diesel freelander.....
