Turned
everything off and went downstairs to do the dishes, leaving my mobile on the
bedside table.
Fester appears in the kitchen holding it before him like some
explosive device saying
"I don't know, it had Peter Ceylon on it before I
pressed something and it went off."
There's only one Peter Ceylon on my mobile
address book so I phoned him. He was one
of the inhabitants of 16E Richardson Rd but he's so shy he never phones anyone.
But we did have a lovely long chat.
4 May 2020 at 22.23Squireen, and other Heatonites,
do you know if Sainsbury's sell elastic, and if so whereabouts would I find it?
The Squireen If they do it will be at the end of an aisle..
Bentonbag I thought so but there's a lot of aisles. I know whereabouts to find them in Tesco
Norham Rd but don't fancy the drive.
The Squireen Have a change of shop easy to get to now there are
traffic lights on the coast road junction.
Bentonbag It's not me - it's Thunderthighs. I used to go to Tesco
with Ferretfingers after Flower Arranging but the broken ankle and present
unpleasantness has put an end to that.
The Squireen Why elastic anyway?
Bentonbag Doll's
knickers
Pink Shipskitchen There's normally a little sewing bit/stand by the
pharmacy
Mrs Jeremy If I had had any in my sewing box, you would have been
more than welcome to it but sadly, I don't have any elastic so can't help,
unfortunately.
Mrs Quilt It will be in the stands at the ends of the aisles near
to the check outs. It is in little blister packs in a pretty minimal
haberdashery. They only have narrow knicker elastic width.
The next day
Kentishlady If you need wide elastic, I have some you are welcome to.
It's black though.
Bentonbag Not at the moment thanks. The Squireen has just dropped off some dolly sized bits.
Later still …
Bentonbag Been to Sainsbury's, found the haberdashery notions unit,
elastic peg completely empty.
It wasn’t just bread-flour and loo rolls that shops ran out of during Lockdown mask making.
