Title: The Beauty Of Local Shops.
Post by: zoony on April 08, 2022, 03:37:04 PM
  Lovely sunny day so Denis and I took my car for a good, long drive as it's been 'stood' for so long. On the way back we stopped at the shops including the local ironmonger. Great old-fashioned little shop, owner-operated and stuffed full of mongery of all kinds.. I wanted to make a scabbard to hold my walking stick, which is redundant when I'm in the wheelchair. Dennis and the proprietor lady, who I know quite well, went exploring. A few minutes later, after many mutterings and measurings and at the exorbitant cost of £1.75 I have a bespoke scabbard which folds away with the 'chair. Magic!

If it had been, you could have changed your moniker to 'zoomy'.   :grin:
