Well., you may ask, what's that all about?
Well, I have an 'adopted daughter" staying with us for a few days and since I had today off, we took the opportunity to visit one or two, well OK five, Op Shops in my locality, and didn't we do well! Had a wonderful morning trawling through fabulous treasure, and, yes, we found plenty! Including Guy Sebastion's first CD, for $1.50; two beaut handbags and a bunch of varied tops that will be very handy in the coming cooler months. "AD" bought some lovely label jackets and a heap of tops that she needs in order to look gorgeous in her new admin position in Sydney.
A highlight of the morning was catching up with a friend who had been transferred from managing a nearby "outlet" to one needing a boost and he was so pleased to see me that he made us both a cup of tea, and even went out to buy us biscuits to go with it! You don't get that treatment at Myers!
AD is concerned how as to how to convey her haul back on the plane, but I have given her a bag and rolled up all her treasure neatly, confident that she will arrive back with EVERY LITTLE THING!
Moral of the story? Where there's a will there's a way!
