New York – Meadowbrook State Parkway between Zeckendorf Boulevard (#M2) and Stewart Avenue (#M3) – accident blocking the right lane.
Sadly this means we will not be able to attend the lecture “Aubergines – Why?” By Professor David Dipping-Sauce, Professor of Vegetables, Soft Fruits and Flans, at The University of Delaware.
Instead we will visit the recently opened World of Leather Sofa Superstore on the Chippenham Road, Swindon to buy a new leather backed corner piece for the front room, reduced to £25.60 from £12,568.78.
A real bargain!

As someone who knows that stretch of the Meadowbrook (and where it is in relation to both Delaware and the airports), I gotta say, when you make stuff up, you really don;t mess around!
That’s the nices thing anyone has said to me all day.Cheers!
I can’t afford not to save 12,543.18 pounds so can you pick up a corner piece for me too? The check is in the mail. (albeit, postage due, but nonetheless…)
Consider it done – it really is a lovely piece of leatherwork too – hand stapled I would wager.
It sounds like a good use of time!
Sofa so good Susie!
Perhaps if we could still fit the lecture in we could explore why in the States we take the beautiful word “aubergine” and reduce it to eggplant! Or better yet, ignore the lecture. I have a strong sense that you would know the answer to this! Am I right? Debra
You are!
Special price for a limited period only, So that will be the next 3 years during their closing down sale which never ends.
Got it in one
