Memories:
Taking empty Tizer bottles back to the corner shop to get some money back. Cant remember how much it was. I was only 6 :rotfl:
Elf n safety would have a field day with that these days. But come to think of it, was dangerous letting a 6 year old carry glass bottles to the shop

That reminded me, when I was about 10 I used to get sent to the off licence to get booze for my parents :eek:
That said, it was a small village where everyone knew everyone, so they knew who I was buying it for, but these days they would be prosecuted right down the road :eek:What is this life if, full of care, we have no time to stand and stare0 -

Good morning Elite. Happy Birthday Neosi.
Hoping everyone is warm, happy and well. Hugs to those not so.

I have one of the poppy ones...It's not really suitable for a bird feeder as when it rains it fills up with water. unless you have it in shelter somewhere.....So....I just use it for a water hole for them...:D[STRIKE]68 [STRIKE]Mouses[/STRIKE] [/STRIKE]
