excited and thrilled to open an order of grey chip board.
           At  some  point  I’m  going  to  have  to  stop  stroking  this
            gorgeous pure linen canvas and put some paint on it......

           "YOU WEREN’T IN SO WE PUT YOUR PARCEL IN
            THE  BIN"?!?!?!  Huuuuurreeeeeaaaly?!  Are  they  actually
            taking the mick out of me now?! Sure enough, my parcel,
            (which  for  all  they  know  could  be  food,  medical
            products, baby equipment, whatever) is in the bottom of
            my wheelie bin! I can’t reach it. The only way to retrieve it
            would be for me to virtually climb into the bin which, call
            me  overly  cautious  but  as  an  unstable  5  foot  nothing
            female with mobility difficulties I’m really not prepared
            to do!

           MONOPOLY was originally created as a teaching tool for
            economic  students.  The  problem  I  always  used  to  hate
            with  Monopoly  was  when  someone  "wins"  its  ‘cos
            they’ve  got  all  the  money  so  they  can’t  sell  anything
            anymore - no one can buy anything anymore n that’s it.
            What’s good about that? It’s the end n it all goes back in
            the  box.  If  that’s  how  the  economy  works  -  which  it
            pretty  much  seems  to,  I  think  this  is  the  stage  in  life
            where  we  all  have  to  go  "Errmmmm...uh  kay,  starting
            again frooooom now." Everyone pack away. That’s it.

           Well, that’s the main thing it seems - that I do
            what  everyone  prefers.  Maybe  everyone
            should compile a list of what they’d prefer
