That movie last night was an absolute waste of time
as far as entertainment went. But the evening was not a total loss. In fact it
ended up as a pretty yummy evening. Why?
Well on the way to the cinema we walk past a little convenience
store, no longer are these little stores called dairy’s, and I’ve notice before
that they have a kiwi flag and another large flag with a sliver fern on it.
There is a small sign on the door stating that they sell New Zealand, Australian
and South African products.
Hmmm, so I just had to go in and have a look. I was
hopeful of finding some of my favourite Krispie biscuits. Well they weren’t
there but the next best thing was. At almost $6a packet, sounds cheaper if you
say £3, I had to buy two.
We despatched one of the packets pretty smartly when
we got home. The other will be savoured a little more slowly, perhaps. They are
very yummy and they were extremely fresh. Nomnomnom.
I know there I go talking about food again
Almost every day at Canary Wharf station there are collectors
after your money for some charity or other. I will not donate to those who look
as though they are paid collectors. These are usually quite young and dressed
up in funny costumes.
Over the last few days war veterans and soldiers in
uniform have been collecting for poppy day. I don’t mind donating to them, and
the Help for Heroes charity. Today was no different at all and did I donate to
them.
Yes I did. The charity raises money to help provide
helping dogs for disabled people.
Then this evening after work The man and I went to
watch a couple of the dogs going through their paces. We were very impressed
with a labra-doodle that entertained the crowd and encouraged them to donate
more The clever dog picked up coins off the floor, or out of our hands and put them
in the collection bucket.
Takes about eighteen months to train one of them up,
and that costs money.
