Today, My friendly manicurist said "aww, bless"at me several times as we were chatting.Later, a shop assistant also said the same thing because I thanked her for helping me pack. I must be looking old or something.I feel bemused more than anything though, is this the latest thing that twenty-something's say to customers?

Have to admit, I have never been subjected to an Aw Bless (Awbless).

It may have something to do with where you live Bags...... Kensington?

Where and how I live couldn't be further from Kensington if it tried! I'm not talking about physical distance, though that is quite a large number of miles too.

One of my old Oxford friends calls it my Scottish eyrie.

Sitting in the bank today I overheard a personal banker say BLESS to an elderly lady 6 times in two minutes. My toes were curling in my shoes.
