I'm so sorry to hear of the pain you are feeling Jane.  Losing a pet is devastating, especially when they've been such a big part of your family.

your observationhs in the mall were amusing, reminds me of the Outlet village here in Swindon, right by the Steam museum.

Your mention of searching for greengrocer's and fishmonger's being a fruitless mission, rings so...

Posted on Mon, 23 Jun 2025

As I'm reading I'm seeing an element of myself in your story. I had the chance to stay on at school and go to art college, but decided in the end money was more important. It would be good to think I had another self, who actually did go to...

I can just see the expression on Gwladys face, poor woman never gets a moment to herself. Though It was so amusing to read.

You know my opinion on technology Harry. The phone I've just got, sits on my desk unused, apart from some much needed important phone numbers that my partner's son put on for me.
