Well, what can I say? My only regret regarding our meeting had been my omission to bring my own teaspoon with which to mash my teabag - those flimsy wooden lolly-stick-style stirrers just don't have the required oomph for such a task.

*adds 'teaspoon' to list for future meetings with Terry*

I hope you will give Rebecca another chance, Terry. A little rude behavior at Starbucks, a run-in with the law over stolen shopping lists, this is all petty stuff. At 27, she is young enough to be rehabilitated. And she has such a kind smile.

Possibly. It's a bit succinct find oneself discussing the same title but quite a different story! 😂

Okay... I admit I don't even know who Frank O'Connor is. He just sounded like he might be a member of my tribe.

There's no escaping the stuff with Terry around!

He brought a WHEELBARROW to our meeting with which to carry it...

Teabags, cheap travel, no lunch - this is the newsletter for Frugality!! And then you throw in one of those ancient old computers - which you no doubt bought for a song. Ah well. Enjoy ‘Florida’! 😃👍😏

(Thanks Terry. As always.)

Yes, Rebecca is extremely reverent towards me. As it happens, we didn't touch Starbucks, but I used poetic licence in order to take advantage of an alliterative opportunity: scandal in Starbucks Chortle
