Frugal

[EternalOptimist]

I was frugal once. In fact, I had a long spell of it
but you know what they say, man cannot live by bread alone

Harsh, but fair

I make allowances as it's grim up north.

When I was a kid, me mum got this job , so she got a child minder in. She was 195 years old.

My mum was closer to 35 .

She never expressed an opinion really, on the cherry question. One night she made the tea.
chips and egg.
She made us about four chips each, instead of a plateful. very frugal

true story .....
we got a chinese delivery last night.
Delivery guy looks around 'you have lot of cat'
EO - 'yeah, do you want some for your kitchen ?'
Delivery guy does not bat an eyelid - 'sure, I bring back next Thursday'


He got a big tip

More uninteresting facts
- I like cherries
- we used to live next door to a posh lady who would regularly 'borrow' a potato or an egg to make her husband's tea. I used to look after her kids occasionally. I never made them chips though.
- the Zipmogs are partial to a Chinese takeaway
