On our return the car park was still almost empty except for the van that had parked right next to us making it almost impossible to get into the passenger side! It's mind boggling isn't it!<br /><br />Hopefully when we go out tomorrow we may not have that problem … watch this space!<br /><br />Have a good week.<br /><br />All the best JanLowcarb team memberhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07961199165290289611noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2100862372880209397.post-15487520407247386512020-06-22T11:02:38.655-07:002020-06-22T11:02:38.655-07:00You're right, Martha.

They may have a degree from some university or other but it does not make one an expert.<br /><br />Wait for it ... today on TV there was a life-style expert, (what is that?) who advised that, "we should be kind to ourselves, we should pamper our bodies and reward it with perfume, or creams, or new fashionable clothing, or even luxury exotic food. We are worth it. If we feel good about our bodies we will feel good inside. Don't let anyone tell you you're overweight. They are fatphobic. Enjoy your AMPLE body!"<br /><br />Have you noticed how the message is all, "me ... me ... me ..."? Selfishness is all the fashion these days. Sad isn't it?<br /><br />God bless, Martha.

There are people starving in the world whilst others use saffron and truffle is their menus. The other day there was a chef on TV who made a dessert and then covered it with 24 carats edible gold flakes. Can you imagine? Real gold flakes! He should have used corn flakes - it's cheaper.<br /><br />God bless.

My biggest pet peeve these days are celebrities who feel compelled to tell the rest of us how to think. Oh, and just keeping things real ….. those of the left-wing persuasion.
