It seems as if the whole world is conspiring against us in our efforts to keep Nigel nice and calm even before the festive season has started, but yesterday I just about despaired ……..
……… because in Evesham we had snow! It was, I would say a twenty minute flurry at the very most ……..
……. but enough to have Nigel panicking as to whether we should start warming up the mince pies, collect kindling and have Cliff’s Greatest Christmas Hits playing to give The Towers the perfect ambiance ….. I’m sorry but just the image of Sir Lord Cliff donned in his Christmas jumper, warbling Mistletoe and Wine very nearly had me diving under the duvet for cover! NOOOOOOOOOOOO!
It was as bad, Darrell told me when he arrived back in a slightly dishevelled state from Lldl, where he popped in, in all innocence, to pick up a packet of custard creams to go with our morning coffee. One minute, he said, it was all very peaceable and civilised and then someone yelled “SNOW” and at that there was a stampede and all the shelves of bread, milk and potatoes were striped as if by locusts.
Needless to say we had crushed custard creams with our morning coffee, totally unsuitable for dunking, casualties of Darrell dodging the marauding crowds and getting out of Lldl as fast as he could! Erm ….. happy days?

Poor Nigel in his dilemma & poor Darrell-a stampede in Lidl is not the place to be when purchasing Custard Creams!
