I thought of his supermarket when I read about the Dutch Jumbo supermarkets. Apparently they noticed how older shoppers enjoyed chatting with the checkout operators so that started a 'slow lane' specially for them, and it was so popular that now they have them in lots of their stores. It amused me a lot because, I confess, I have a favourite check out guy at my local, and am quite happy to queue behind several other trollies if it means chatting with him. He has a gorgeous smile and always looks pleased to see me - I suspect I am not his only fan, lol. In these days of fast shopping it is nice to know one company is thinking about us slower ones!
Oh, and Treacle's mum has got back to me with a possible solution to her toileting thing. It seems our Pud has been used to one of those closed in litter boxes, which explains a lot. So I am ordering one to be delivered this week. Her mum has also suggested that she comes back to stay with her when I go in for the next hip, which would be a huge worry off my mind.
Meanwhile herself is sunning herself on the deck, digesting her late breakfast, totally oblivious to all this fussing over her.
I'm coming back as a cat. A pampered one...
