Change- LING

So, it's various people's birthdays today! The most important obviously being JON. But also our dearest Eleanor (<3).

So yeah, Happy Birthday!

You should have seen the look of joy on Eleanor's face after she received that third Terry's Chocolate Orange. Nothing says 'I love you' like a ball of chocolatey fun.

In other news, I'd like to add to what Vicky spoke about in her last post. Last weekend I was also travelling by bus. My buses are fairly frequent, unless you're in some sort of mad rush, so I was stood at the bus stop with confidence, as the electronic time table counted down the minutes until it arrived. The bus pulled up as scheduled and everything was good, everyone was happy. I patiently waited for people to file in, then skipped up to the driver, brandishing my £1 coin. Only to be met by a look of disgust.

It turned out that all of those people who had paid before me hadn't had the exact change either and he wasn't impressed with any of us. He reluctantly handed me his last 60p then ushered me down the bus. I sat next to another 40p paying person and we all waited for the next changeless fool. Needless to say, he was then met by a young boy with a 50p. Well, I'm sure you can imagine his reaction to such a repulsive coin. He complained at this poor 12-13 year old that "they" had already taken all of his change, so he better get the hell off of his bus, adding a finger point down the bus to clearly show who 'they' were.

I was seriously debating whether or not to say the customary "thanks" as I stepped off the bus. I wasn't brave enough not to in the end. I had visions of him running me over in revenge.
