Staying Local

This little adventure took me to our town's butcher, hairdresser, charity shop and laundromat, all bipedally. Charity shops in the U.K. are a lot like a thrift store, but they're 'cause' based and not-for-profit. That's the £1 rack on the sidewalk.

Our local High street store is run by the North Montgomeryshire Volunteer Bureau to fund their community car scheme, where volunteers drive elderly or disabled people to appointments, social activities and local services. The organization covers the cost of gas and parking.

After that, I did some yardwork, of course, on my own two feet

and was able to run away from some fussy wasps, mostly bipedally.

One sting only.
