I'm probably becoming more garrulous as I grow older but every time I open my newspaper and read the headlines, I feel I'm living in an increasingly alien environment, with fewer and fewer people sharing the same values as I have. Reckon I should be auditioning for the Grumpy Old Women TV programme.
I'm right with you Primrose. I'm definitely getting worse. I was watching the programme the other night and found myself nodding in agreement on quite a few occssions........I am a Grumpy-nearly-early-middle-age-woman......
What happend to good manners, self respect, dignity and a feeling of self worth?
Maybe i'm an alien and was transported to this strange land during my sleep?

Grock, just hope your car doesn't break down on the way home !! I once had to drive my husband to the airport in my nightdress hastily covered up by a raincoat when his taxi failed to turn up to take him for a very early flight and he was in danger of missing it. . As I was driving home along the motorway I suddenly spotted my petrol tank was reading Empty. I had visions of being stuck on the motorway dressed like that and having to walk along the hard shoulder to find an emergency phone. (Long before the days of mobile phones). My luck held and the engine spluttered out just as I pulled into our road so I always venture out fully dressed now!
This isnt Wales, but you campers out there may like to try Breck farm campsite near Cromer Norfolk. Apart from the fact that it is cheap, they also allow camp fires and they have a farm shop selling their own free range eggs and Norfolk pink potatoes.Contact them on [email protected]

I love that area of the world. When I was a child we used to holiday at Bacton nr Cromer.
I almost wish I had a caravan (I'd not cope with a tent now...)

Kind Regards, Old Herbaceous.

I loved the beach at Bacton, with the possible exception of the occasion when my sister found a very large, dead, eel on the beach. The little horror picked it up (it still had a weight and broken fishing line attached to it) and chased me up the beach with it. I was only about 7 (she was 5) but I think I could have broken an olympic record getting away from her.
It's nice to know you're walking in my footsteps OH.
