Many thanks People.


As a child having a Birthday only 6 days after Christmas and at the end of the actual year was a pain, I mean, it was a PROPER REAL WHOLE YEAR to the next one with nothing in-between.


The "this is a big present for Xmas AND your birthday" thing was horrible and mean. Even as a small child I wanted to know why I couldnt have had small presents on both days like everybody else did.


In my mid-40s (literally now) I still get far too much excitement from opening presents, even the office secret Santa ones, which I know will be chocolate genitals or similar.


Of course a NYE Birthday now means that I always have a party to go to, although seldom with jelly and ice-cream.


Anyway, to prepare for lunch and then Party!

      What's going on at the Co-Op

      The empty shelves is well reported, but the sewage smell has been awful for weeks if not months, and just keeps getting worse. It started off near the Costa machine/ behind the delivery and collections booth thing, but now it hits you the second you walk in the store. I’m amazed nothing (visibly at least) appears to be going on to fix it. Somewhat relieved it’s not just me who can smell it!

      I presume the terrapins originally came to the park as unwanted pets. It seems to be fairly common for people to dump them in park ponds etc when they realise they don't stay the small size they were when they bought them.

      Same reason that M&S's shelves were half empty recently. https://www.theguardian.com/business/2025/apr/30/co-op-forced-to-shut-down-part-of-it-system-after-hack-attempt?CMP=Share_AndroidApp_Other
