And of course rechargables were deemed to be "too expensive", for a guess.Originally posted by zeitghost View PostWell the super new elektronicky register taking machines are eating AAA cells like there's no tomorrow.

I'm still amazed that I managed to get up around six in the morning for much of this year. I'd never managed that before. In fact, for much of my life I've found it hard to get up around nine in the morningOriginally posted by zeitghost View PostOh.
As late as that?


It remains to be seen whether I can avoid entering hibernation mode as the days get shorter…

The cob shop over the road has been transmogrified. I assume they finally managed to sell it. It's been painted a rather unpleasant shade of green, replacing its tasteful creamy pale yellow, and has acquired garish illuminated signage replacing the typographically quite pleasing sign of yore.
It's still called "The Cob Shop" though, so at least it hasn't been turned into some nightmarish hipster watering hole
I'll have to try their bacon and sausage cobs before I can be sure things are OK, though.Comment
