Harry's

Over to the folks' today - a quiet day at home really, no going anywhere or doing much - at least, not while I was there!

I had to leave to get my train at 2:15 PM, and my Dad said that a guy from some mobility company had an appointment to come round and (try to) sell him a rise to recline chair. He has one already, but this guy wants to offer him a part-ex deal. My Dad does not want a new chair, and only agreed to the meeting as the guy was insistent on the phone.

It will either end with him being pushy enough to convince my Dad he actually does want a new chair, even though he doesn't, or with my Dad losing his temper and chucking him out. Both are equally likely!

Yes, I know the guy is only trying to make a living, and as part of that he has to persuade reluctant people to buy. But there is no way I would want that job, no matter how good the product I was selling! 

I'm glad I don't have to "push" extra sales in the chippy! I tried once, as an experiment. The regulars weren't impressed at all, but I did quite well getting randoms to buy extra sauces and drinks!

This shot is of Harry's house, where the fruit and veg often comes from. I love how "wild" and colourful the garden is!
