Quite understandable. My temprament would have got in the way too. The salad sounded lovely though! I’d have gone back to the shop for you, too. 
I look forward to seeing more of your posts.

I love chatting about 70’s nostalgia. I spent a fair part of my break at work a couple of weeks ago reminiscing about Crossroads and the characters that appeared in it.
Maybe I should get out more…

Tony Adams ( Adam) is still around and Benny, and Miss Diane. Most of the cast are no longer with us.
Sadly Jill has dementia.
Did you watch Nolly recently?

It was very sad about Sandy , he was fit and healthy when he was cast in the wheelchair, then he got Hodgkin’s disease and had to use a wheelchair. Life imitating art?
He died of the illness aged 35…

Yes, all very sobering really. It’s easy to forget actually how long ago that was. I didn’t watch Nolly I’m afraid, that one just passed me by. I hardly watch any TV at all these days, just the occasional DVD.

The serial seemed to reach a kind of crossroads and took a wrong turn.

I enjoy baking and need to follow mostly recipes rather than make up new gems…
My Crumpets I now know I had forgotten to heat the milk and then add the cold water. so its luke warm only.
…The difference is startling…loads of bubbles meaning loads of air holes in the Crumpets…much tastier now. Have tried batch cooking them and as long as you under brown them then all is purrfectly Successful…

Case in point, I just got a new client, but boy does he talk! Like 10 minutes explaining how he found something on ebay and the mini dramas of its delivery .
I wonder if such folk are aware they can be boring when reeling off every tiny detail?
I mean sure if it’s recounting a really amusing story, but an ebay delivery?
I’m a good listener to an extent but when people push it too far I let them know one way or another. Sometimes I’m too blunt and it doesn’t go down well
Don’t ever use the phrase ‘so I turned around and said’

Or, as is common up here
“I was like…then she was like…the he came in and was like…” while demonstrating facial expressions and hand gestures!
