Coping

there was a piece in the papers yesterday bout how the rest of the world doesn't understand the way the British use the verb "to cope"

the nuances and the importance of context

anyway I'm coping with the extra hours I've put in at work over the last month....

but I treated myself to lunch in Morrisons and sat opposite two real examples of coping

I've blipped the blind man and his guide dog before and today there was the new dad (baby girl 10 days old) out on his own for the first time

so stressed he ate his chocolate muffin before his jacket potato came
