I'm pretty sure I've posted this before, but it always makes me laugh, so here it is again. Rusty

It appears that Olive Oyl's face - sorta got Pop-eyed? When the owner of an Audi drives it in the city, folks ... do they call that Auda-city? Getting older, yeah, eld - but we need to have some fun along the way. One of the bright spots of Covid was that the pension cheques kept coming, so I was able to pay the rent and pay for food ... ... says this old fart who's been on pension for 28 years (26 for one that had an annual increase if one delayed claiming). ole joyfuelled

Wildchild - our Stop and Shop chain has a creepy robot that's taller than me and it always scares me when it crosses my path. It's silent. It looks a lot like the Tin Man from the Wizard of OZ but has blue eyes. I honestly don't know it's function....except to get people to leave the store faster...

My school sports uniform went through a few changes while I was there. The oldest uniform was a dress with pleated skirt in a tiny houndstooth blue and white check. The four large pleats (two front, two back) had inserts of red fabric. The next one, which I owned, had a tunic top and pleated skirt in the same blue and white houdstooth check. The skirt, also pleated as the former one piece dress had been, also had red fabric inserts, and the same red fabric trimmed the bottom edge of the tunic top in a 3” wide band. Then they introduced a truly hideous uniform, which I am so glad I didn’t have. It was a tunic top and shorts. The shorts, which were a darkish teal colour, were like a cross between bloomers and shorts in that they kind of fluffed out and then were gathered into a cuff band at the bottom of the leg. The tunic top was fire engine red, with a 3”-4” diagonal band across the chest going from the left hip up to the right shoulder iirc. The band was turquiose coloured, and there was a row of yellow rick rack on either side of it. No idea how anyone could think that was in any way attractive.
