Was about to leave for town (for bank) and then go on to local retail outlet to buy a trench raincoat, but saw I’d got a flat tyre. Mr AA came and changed the wheel, so cancelled plans to get coat and called at garage with the flat on way to the bank. They asked me to go back in a couple of hours – so had to mooch about in the town to kill time. Went into charity shop and there was EXACTLY the raincoat I wanted, complete with detachable lining, looks brand new - £9.99!!!! So, what I’ve saved on the coat will pay for the new tyre and I thought I deserved lunch out on the saving as well. Perhaps it is my lucky day after all. Jay |
