Today when I came back from the shops my brother was there outside in his car .,he was worried about me he thought I might kill myself because of a text i sent him the night before like you do .but you need a key to enter the main door and he hasn't got one .He saw a doctor enter the flat and asked her if she would let him in because he was worried about me .
She said she's not allowed He then asked her to knock on my door to see if I'm ok .she said she's enough to do phone the police if hes worried so he phoned my daughter instead Any road he had read the text wrong and I saw him |

Going off the subject .I remember my mam going to a funeral and when she came back she said .you've never seen a spread like it there was everything and she then said there was the biggest nicest salmon as the centerpiece of the spread that she had ever seen it was beautiful .
I said was the salmon nice she said I don't know I don't like salmon What's that to do with anything you might ask .nothing but that was in my head and I've posted it |

You could alleviate much of this anxiety by the simple expedience of having your groceries deliverd.

I phoned several up but they don't let you buy one small medium sliced loaf and one pkt of cadburys chocolate fingers and state they must be no more than £1 or just deliver the bread

I've recently returned to the UK after living abroad for the last eleven years and find it surprising to see an array of wheelie bins outside every house, really strange to see soo many at every block of flats. Even more bizarre to learn that I can only stick them out for collection once a fortnight and on a rotation basis. Things aint what they used to be.

The oddball selection of tv adverts is a bit of a culture shock for me. A lady telling me that she never realised her panty liners were so bulky until she rode her bicycle followed by another where another lady informs the public that she has found some sexy incontinence pants is very hard for me to fathom.

When I worked on the market i had to speak to people from all over the world and one girl came from Zanzibar .I still don't know where it is today but I was stopped in my stride I thought fancy coming from Zanzibar to my stall
Even though we had difficulty in communicating with each other ( no she spoke perfect English but she still couldn't understand my English ) We managed to complete the sale I'm sure if a girl from Zanzibar can understand me talking about women's fashion .then you Mr Crippen won't let a kid and a lid come between us .what's a k and l between friends |

I'll never forget when Tommy cooper came on the market looking to buy a new fez and Ali the anorak market stall seller ended up selling him a Tommy hillfighter anorak he didn't have the size Tommy needed in ,so he cut the label out and he sold him the only one that he had
It was three sizes too big but Ali helped him try it on and pulled the back of the anorak in to make it look like it fitted him |
