What are people buying?

Ah, pure nostalgia there. Sigh. Sniff. And so on.

By happy coincidence, I received 3 of those modern text messages upon my wireless phone today, from my boys & that sister in law person, asking what they should get me for Christmas. After scanning the Spencer Smith 18thC page, I responded to each with a list of suggestions & Peter's phone number. Hurrah.

We don't celebrate groundhog day in Yorkshire. There's no point, as every day is like yesterday which was like the day before which was like the day before which was like the day before which was like the day before which was like yesterday because nothing much really changes. Not round here abouts anyways.

And yet you still get the wrong day.

[grizzlymc]

More the wrong week.

He never misses a solstice though.
Admittedly they do the odd practice run as well.

[Peeler]

As its a Wednesday, I'll let you off with your sarcastic comments.

And yet you still get the wrong day.

To be fair, after you retire, one day of milky tea and Countdown is much like the next.

[goat major]

you don't want to know about Peeler's milky tea

[Peeler]

Milky tea with sugary biscuits & Midsomer Murders.
