Life in a Northern Town

Last day at work

Sarah’s last day at work today before Christmas so I popped in to say hello. She was happily working the till and chatting to customers, one of whom asked her about Christmas dinner and if her Mum was a good cook. I’m not sure she answered quickly enough……


We’re in some sort of Twilight Zone with a delivery - we had endless texts telling us a parcel would arrive this morning - then a text saying that delivery had been attempted and failed, but a card had been left with further instructions. Weird as David was in, the security cameras show no sign of an attempt and no card in the door. So now we have no clue - and to make it worse it’s a gift from John’s boss in France! Last year we had to pay €130 in duties and fees to receive the gift, which turned out to be some mustard, nuts and a jar of snails.
