The love of money is the root of all evil... or at least of a poorly finger.
The chip shop lady missed my hand when giving me my change and a £1 coin fell on top of the counter under which the fish is kept warm while waiting for a customer to choose it. Instantly the coin became incredibly hot, as I discovered when I went to pick it up. Ouch!
In other news, the Smudgelets now seem to have just five pairs of socks each and thirty seven odd ones. They were awarded 5p per pair in a mad frenzied sock-hunt through the bag of odd ones, but are rather less pleased to know that I am docking their pocket money (which they don't have!) to purchase replacement socks. Tiddles declared that, rather than pay for new ones, he would stand and wash socks every evening. I wonder how long it would last.
I now have photos of Zoe Laura - image of her grandad (my brother-in-law). Can't wait to see her, though the Smudgelets will beat me to it as they're visiting her while I go to the health farm. Woohoo - can't believe that's just a week and a half away !!!
