Yesterday, I collected 8 pairs of pants, the underwear sort. The first new pants I've had as a Moneyless Chicken. Smile To celebrate, I wore some today when I went for a dental checkup. They must have brought me luck as I didn't need any treatment - so that was FREE as well. Big Grin

Use it up, wear it out, make it do or do without.

New pants eh? I still think that's an extravagance, even if they were free. Should we ask for a photo?...... perhaps not.

Just back from the Free Food Church. Its only once a month so I couldn't miss it as I need to stock up! Fresh beans, parsnips. potatoes (small and baking), baby courgettes, baby corn, cos lettuce, spring onions, butternut squash, lemons & limes, Tinned peas and baked beans, bread & rolls, little boxes of raisins and some chickpea veggie burgers. You can expect to see these items on my Daily Menu for a while.

You remind me of an old retired farm foreman I used to know (Auld George!) When dealing with govenment depatments he used to wear the oldest clothes he could find,walk with a stoop and wear a cap with straw sticking out of it ! He also claimed he couldn't read (which he could vey well) to get them to flll foms out fo him and feel sorry for him. Smile

He was even registered blind because when the woman from the govenment came to see him afte ringing his doorbell, on answeing the door he shouted back to his wife " The's no one there Betty?" even though she was standing in front of him.

When slaughteing the pigs he was asked "Do you want half a pig and will you be able to carry it home?" His reply was "If I'm getting it for nowt, I'll carry anything" even though he lived half a mile away! Big Grin

I miss him dearly for his patter. He was once asked by someone doing a suvey on the steet if he smoked after sex? His reply was " I've never looked" Rolleyes
"I'd rather be the oldest in the gym rather than the youngest in the nursing home"
