Not that it's the first time it's happened, but I found myself in a sort of dilemma at lunchtime today. I could take the short-cut through the village on my way back home, or I could drive the long-way-round and visit my local butcher.
I decided to take the long route, but the butcher was closed for lunch.
There was a lovely looking couple in their late 60's, also disappointed not to be able to get two rather large slabs of red for their gas BBQ that plugs into their caravan because they are on holiday down here, and had just walked miles? So, having discussed the calamity, at great lengths with them, I offered to drive them to another Butcher 5 miles away, and to drop them back to their Caravan.
Although very nervously accepted by Mrs. (Mr. convinced her in the end...) there are now two VERY happy Forest of Dean Tourists, tucking into their 8oz. Rump Steaks as I type.
Smug No. Thoughtful Yes.
What did YOU do today?
