Maybe he'd made a note of what you asked for, but processed the previous order. Or just reheated the previous order before handing it to you.

Daddies Sauce?

Now that Heinz owns both Daddies and HP, is there a difference? I ask the experts.

…..and I’ve only just scraped to 1,000 miles on the bike. Would normally have done quite a bit more but not too bothered these days.

I’ve only got to 706 miles Then again I’m a lazy old sod. Who loves Marmite Don’t know what that’s got to do with it.

Did he give you someone else's order, meaning some has yours.

Once on the ferry I ordered food. When this did not appear at our table I went to enquire and was told I had got it on time. Turned out some American tourists had claimed it was theirs and eaten it but not paid for anything. We did get served later as we were regular travellers and known to the staff.
They have now got a better system of numbers to avoid such thievery.

Nice peaceful trike run this morning so early Saturday or Sunday is obviously the best time to go.
Got caught out by the Post Office van running late and hammering it and ended up on an upward slope in too high a gear. Fortunately I had a place to run back to and get started again.
The van had to make Tob and then get to the ferry at Craignure hence the rush.
Spoke with an elderly couple free camping in a camper van. They were birdwatching and when I remarked on the lack of water birds the woman replied that they had seen a mallard and a grebe. Big deal. There used to be lots of all kinds of water birds pre sea eagle days.
Out my window just now a sea eagle by the size is getting hassled by a flock of crows and retreating back to Ardmore. Lots of sand martins feeding around my house all the time just now but they are too small to interest a sea eagle I think.

I've just had a very big fry-up. I'll now need to either have a double espresso or go and have a lie down.

Have the coffee, then the lie down.

That was in the days before mass tourism and everybody was a bit more trusting. Cars were never locked and most house doors were not locked either. One neighbour had no idea where the house key was.
Sadly those days have gone.
