My fastidious mother (actually her home help) uses liquid soda on her floors. Don't ask me why, but she likes it. The only place I can find it is at Yorkshire Trading in Ripon. I had to pop in today to get something from Booths (they had loads of toilet rolls by the way) so decided to take the short walk to YT to see if they were open. It was and nobody buying stuff.
I said to the lady when paying that I was a little surprised that they were open. Don't worry lad (it's a long time since I've been called lad) she said, if they tell us to close I'll just start selling food or at least bags of crisps.
True Yorkshire grit.
And to top it all off today our lovely young neighbour stopped me in the street to offer any help we might need. So now I'm officially an older person who might be in need. Bugger!
As we're stuck indoors maybe this is the answer?
After spending the last three years not travelling (holidays) in order to avoid putting Minnie into kennels we now both have to self isolate. We couldn't fly anywhere even if we wanted to because all the airlines have stopped flying to the sort of place we would want to go to.
On top of that our 18 years old Jeep bought in France has given up the ghost and my 95 years old mother needs lots of care and attention.
And now I've got bloody toothache. That's it I resign!
