As i walked to the only open, but unattended, checkout in Lidl the only visible staff member made eye contact and walked out of thestore only to return a minute later carrying something. Then she sat on the till and proceeded to check out my purchases. When she finished and asked for payment i said \"is it my turn to make eye contact now and walk away to make you wait\".. it appeared her command of English language wasn\'t capable of comprehending me. Or maybe she was just dense.
Fortunately Lidl service is usually very quick.
Like everyone else, i am aware of the untrained quality of \'those who are employed to serve\'. I rarely accept poor service without commenting something like \'have you not been trained how to serve customers properly?\'

I don\'t blame you. I\'ve walked out of some shops where they seem to look at you suspiciously. Sometimes I\'m unnerved by it.

ECM recording label has a certain feel to all its productions, unique clarity. Their jazz catalogue is well worth browsing... you tube has many if u just enter ECM in search there.
Sight of the beautiful moon is a refresher. Another of the natural delights which can bring ones own existence into perspective - a mind balancer perhaps.

BRIAN HERE (Angela in bed 1am Saturday !) We love JOAN BAEZ she was at Llangollen International Eissteddfodd recently and still as Beautiful as ever. There is only ONE JOAN BAEZ ! Angelas poem today is about Paradise ~ somewhere to escape from an ecologically dying Earth. She suggests that if Populated Planets (if they exist ?) are too distant ~ then One should travel to NZ ! She is now more hooked than I am !
Blessings & Peace to You & Joyce

We, as humans, may think we rule the earth but let us remember we only \'rule\' the land. Most of our planet\'s surface is covered by sea where we are inferior to every marine life form. An environment where we do not see any particular species \'ruling the roost\' but all behaving in a natural manner until man spills oil or suchlike.
Life on this planet will endure catastrophe after catastrophe but mankind is unlikely to be among those survivors.
As you can see, I found your piece a thought provoking read today.

I was bought a croquet set as a child but the mallets and balls were weightless polythene which made it impossible to use really.
It does sound great fun but i think i\'ll just stick to croquet potatoes.
