The local thrift stores have much nicer clothes than the local department stores, and I can get a lovely outfit for less than $20 and the cost of soap and ammonia.

Some people shudder at the idea, but clothes on racks in department stores have been tried on by sweaty bodies too.

We both laugh.

Sharon asked the very question I was going to. That clears that up. If it were our Charlie Brown, he’d have been muttering the cuss against wicked Lucy every time she jerked the football away.

Stay cool, John!

He was a British photographer, very famous in his day. I worked in his darkroom/studio for a while. The only cuss he allowed himself in a world which frustrated him greatly as it changed while he stood still, was a lovely 1930s quote from a British stage musical–’May his rabbits die’.

Funny what sticks in your head, ennit?

Who is this Charlie Brown? And what about the rabbits? My Charlie Brown was sired by Charles M. Schulz. Who’s your guy?

And I am. :-)

You can have some of our rain, John. It’s rained every day, except for 3 this month. In fact I was just outside weeding the garden and then was planning on mowing the lawn…we got soaked.

Can Graham put a small A/C unit in the caravan? Or even one of those portable room coolers that can be moved from space to space?
