I cannot believe that you tempted an elderly gentleman into pinching your buns - I dread to think how J was building such a relationship in the butchers whilst you were in the bakers! ;) xHannahBananahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09287810989444563286noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6789689551731499139.post-81150514145554190142010-04-12T14:47:29.230+01:002010-04-12T14:47:29.230+01:00LOL.

Now, pinching those would have constituted sexual harrassment ;)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15355473557798656686noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6789689551731499139.post-72888466629688986332010-04-09T18:33:59.173+01:002010-04-09T18:33:59.173+01:00I absolutely love the sense of community you get i...I absolutely love the sense of community you get in local shops - and the warm feeling that you get from feeling like a part of something. The folks in our local corner shop all know our names and they'll even tell me if Steve has been in before me so I don't buy more milk or bread than we need! :)Clairhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07059486426006738357noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6789689551731499139.post-83781031029447464292010-04-09T15:47:13.572+01:002010-04-09T15:47:13.572+01:00Or "How are your baps" which is what we ...Or "How are your baps" which is what we call what I think you are calling a fadgie.
