    My daughter works for a supermarket and most staff hate being on them.
    This is because so many people try to steal things and when pulled up nicely become abusive quite often. One member has panic attacks and goes home after being abused.
    She prefers serving on the registers and some of the older folk come to her because she helps them lift things or gets them help if they seem unwell or asks how they are.

    Years ago when I was first teaching there weren’t many unusual names one of the mothers complained that I was pronouncing her child’s name the wrong way.
    It was Sherrel and i had pronounced it like Cheryl whereas it was Sher el.
    I really feel for teachers these days.

    Yes I’m sure more small houses could be built at more affordable prices. The prices for building seem much more when the government arranges anything than if they were done privately.
    If they want more immigration more housing should have to be increased before the total increases.

    I agree Jacka. My daughter who works there has to ask cash or card and often after putting their things through on a card register they say” But I wanted to pay cash, Can you tell me what my card number is?”

    One year my Mother in law made a delicious looking jam and cream sponge and served it up to us.
    My youngest refused to have any and told us later that she had seen the cat jump up on the table where the cake was and lick off half the cream and her Grandma had just put some more cream on.
