Stocking Up For The Baby's Arrival

[poliphilo]

Peter chucked in the cold-calling job after a single day.  I'm glad.  He has other offers on the table, including one from the Park Cakes bakery

We took Odi shopping yesterday. We went to a poky little African shop that smells of long dead fish and the huge Wing Yip Chinese emporium on Oldham Road. The Wing Yip looks like a castle or temple and it's where the restauranteurs go to bulk buy. Odi got a box of frozen chicken wings and a box of frozen something else to tide them over the baby's arrival.

The Wing Yip's fun section had a shelf of Japanese lucky cats- maneki neko- all waving their paws. Fabi and I liked those.

I wish those two (and their kids, of course) well. They are lucky to have you in their lives!

Thanks.

I'm a bit anxious at the moment- what with the baby due any time now....
