Bobby Charlton had hair
Member local school board of Governors was telling me about the interview he had taken part in. A female teacher was appointed. It does seem a pity to me that there are so few men in early years work. When I was a kid it was probably 50/50 but now very few men work in First schools.
Woman buys Rosemary and it set off in me a memory of a trip to Patmos where the cave where St John wrote the Revelations on the day was full of Rosemary. It was a wonderful smell but it did make you think "where's the roast lamb".
We were talking about conversations you over hear on public transport. I recall on a Wirral train a man say that he did not run after a thief on holiday who had stolen his wallet reasoning that the thief would use the card less than his girlfriend. On another occasion I over heard a Scouser talking to a friend about her sugar daddy that he was going to spend " £15,000 on me tits"
Chatted about Man United. years ago when I work for the Office for National Statistics I interviewed a man who had played for United although not in the first team. The man had showed me a picture taken in his mothers back in the summer of 1956 which showed a young Bobby Charlton with quiff, David Pegg and Tommy Taylor the later name dying in the Munich crash

News about Fergie resigning as manager of United. The only story I heard about him was when I worked in Manchester and a work colleague got married at a hotel in Wilmslow. Fergie was there and bought the wedding party a drink. I have always felt warm about him since hearing that story.
Boy with tee shirt with "killer robot run for your lives" on the front. I feel that about the self scan
Scots woman with Scandinavian crime novel by the same person who wrote "Smila feeling for snow". She likes crime novels but there are frequent mention of philosophers. Are there any Scandinavian philosophers? she asks. Where there is always Kierkegaard. Next time I promise to do a till seminar on existentialism
