she wasn’t working for the next three days - so held it for her - she arrived about 8.45 nice presentable lady - she had to pay cash she told me when I asked her to do online banking - so I gave her the wool and she handed me a plastic sandwich bag with notes in it - didn’t open it until later - it contained $5 and folded paper - of course she has blocked me - I rang a friend at the medical centre doesn’t fit the description of any of the staff so I was well and truly conned - karma will get her !
Hunni Dr Harker chest is brilliant if the cough continues- my husband was recommended it when he developed his lung disease - he called it his sticks and weeds brew - it’s a bit expensive and tastes awful
Madame le Cat had to wait Hunni, I may be slightly weird but I'm not feeding her early - I know it means she'd be always trying it on, little toad.
What a miserable person to do that Jan. What you put out comes back to you in various ways & I'd not want to be in her shoes.
in order to be old & wise, you must first be young & stupid. (I'm still working on that.)
