I once took 11 items through a "10 items or less" express checkout.
...I am totally reckless like that.

It's just a fun day really lol, lots of games and competitions and a BBQ the big event is during the winter..... Usually December. That one has the great big Longboat the torchlight parade, the songs and the boat burning ect ect. Like "Up Helly Aa" on Shetland but not on such a grand scale.
Those photos were taken by one of the professional photographers here and we'd asked her to do it for us, I couldn't take photos like that to save myself. So she did a small set up the beach a bit where it was quiet, We were surprised to see she'd added a big Longboat into one of the photos, but it looked good.

Quote from: Ashy on Today at 11:37:40 AMThere has to be a cock at the meter, or the has company could not change or remove the meter. Mind you have a point I have never looked at mine.
I have just been outside to have a look (i've been quite busy today) and, yes, there is indeed a lever to close the supply, though it is quite difficult to turn.  I shall have to spray a little WD40 on it.
Thanks for your suggestion and, yes, they wouldn't be able to change the meter if there wasn't such a thing.  Silly me!  🙄

When Edna walked into her church
She found a pew at the front to perch
The vicar was a handsome guy
And Ethel had a wandering eye
Edna! Ethel! ... both spinsters in search
