Cheap Shot

Pleasant but quieter than yesterday.
The Little Dolphins returned after their Summer break (toddler-swimming up the road, and then they come for lunch). Fortunately I'd remembered so we had enough jacket potatoes to go round. The mums were also gathering to fill in a questionnaire for a forensic psychologist's top-up PhD.
She has three kids, two jobs and still has time to top up her PhD.
I have two kids, one job for half the year and I still can't finish the ironing.
A woman bought one of our birdboxes - the shape and colour of a post box.
Not the size of one. Obviously.
She'd mulled over the purchase during lunch worried she wouldn't get it into her suitcase. She lives in Switzerland.
"How nice," I said.
"I like it round here" she replied.
A couple walked out in disgust at the price of a pot of tea and an americano coffee (£4).
Another couple wrote in the visitors' book what great food, service and value for money they felt they'd had.
