A Most Excellent Find And Present For Lulu

Without sounding overly modest, sometimes we even astound ourselves with our "on point" charity shop shopping spottage.  

Our beloved Lulu has been musing for quite a while now whether a coffee machine in her bedroom for lazy Sunday mornings would be a good idea, saving on going downstairs to make a coffee/tea and then taking it back to bed ........

...... but such things cost money and ever prudent, she was wary of making an expensive mistake.  

However, we'd not really given it all that much thought, but the idea must still have got stuck somewhere in our communal subliminal psyche, because when Darrell and Alice were mooching in the Salvation Army shop up town, they gasped in unison when they both spied the display table, where the most perfect machine was standing proud and resplendent, marked up for the very princely sum of £6 (pat tested). Well, it was a no brainer and at that price, certainly worth a punt (the receipt kept safe, just in case).

A box of coffee pods was duly purchased (from Iceland, as the Salvation Army don't usually sell food stuffs) and excitedly and expectantly bought home.  Unfortunately, on testing, the pod drawer was well and truly jammed, but a quick flick through YouTube and the problem was quickly remedied, it was an old stuck pod, but after that, all was well!  A pertinently timed find, soooooooooo Happy Birthday Lulu ....... and if you find you don't get on with it, we'd be interested!  Happy, happy days!
