Kind gesture but did nothing for my ego!

I take all such gestures as being meant kindly; and I would rather have such kindness than have people keep their mouths shut for fear of offence.

I thought you meant real ones for a minute. I know they're clever animals but I didn't know they were that good!

Have you ever experienced the Beavers on the supermarket checkouts, packing your goods to raise money?
Scary, but you can't fault their enthusiasm!

Luckygirl3 - yes she was a lovely lady and despite her final comment I will be shopping there again! Baggs she packed the bag well - better than I would have done in fact!

Sounds like a lovey lady.

I hope she packed it well. Most people are a bit clueless about how to pack a bag.

Yep. 'To see ourselves as others see us' springs to mind. I always remember at 18 thinking 46 was old. Huh!
