Michael,  wouldn't it be better to wear a long sleeve cardigan or jumper if your arms are cold?
Look after yourself, won't you.

But as he set out for a beer
Some wolf whistles came loud and clear
He gave them a smile
And they ran a mile 
Fast as they could in fear.


Theere were youngsters were sat altogether
Then someone tickled his bum with a feather

I had to google  'crossover bag.'     :rolleyes:  (I don't get out much do I).   :smiley:

That must have been awful for your friend, Scrumps.   It's the personal stuff that is often irreplaceable, isn't it.     I detest these chancers.
Sounds like they knew about the missing cameras in that part of the shop, maybe they do it regularly.

I wonder how she will put all her contacts back on the new phone though,  because she won't know their numbers, will she?   I would never remember mobile numbers, they're too long.

I know how I felt once when I had my bag stolen somewhere between the checkout and the car park.
I had just paid,  and was walking to my car,  but when I got to the car my bag had gone.
What hurt me most was losing a beautiful picture of my soul-mate German Shepherd dog who had only just died.
(That is him in my avatar).

I found out from the Police later, that the thief had gone straight to the cash machine in Tesco's car park,  but had got one digit wrong on my pin number,  so couldn't steal my money.
They reckoned its these people who stand around near the check-outs pretending to be waiting for their families,  but really they are watching us putting our pin number in at the tills.  Then all they've got to do is get your card,  which with me - they did.     Bastards.

My mate had her bag stolen when shopping in Sainsbury's.. 
It was in her trolly.. She insists that she could see it all the time.. 
She lost her phone.. with pics of her children.. A little gift from her mum given to her 60 years ago.. 
She has no home phone.. 
She had to buy a new phone to contact others.. All her contacts were on the phone..
Sainsbury's had  a look on their cctv camera.. It showed nothing of interest.. However they did say that they do not have cameras in the fruit and veg isles.. 
I guess the thieves know this and concentrate on that area..

I always use a crossover bag with the bag to the front.. I don't think I have a handbag..

There was an old man round the block
Who often went out in a frock
With shoes really big
And a terrible wig
And to round it off - odd socks.


But as he set out for a beer
Some wold whistles came loud and clear

Pity they don't put notices up telling people not to walk their dogs on the burning hot pavements too!

If I had my way I would make these owners take their shoes and socks off and stand on the burning pavement for half an hour.
Only then might the thick-heads  realise what they're putting those dogs through.

I have just some washing which included a tissue..
left in pocket..  :sad:
Going to mow the grass before it gets too hot..
Washing tissues is surely taking economising a bit too far . .  :grin:
