Cling film and other matters
Is it just me, or does it not cling as much as it used to? I remember when this stuff was invented. Or at least, when a roll first arrived in Enfield. It stuck SO well a certain skill was required in placing it over a dish or bowl. Now the bloody stuff won’t cling! It just sits rather pathetically on the rim of the bowl and pressing it down ends up in a bad tempered wrestle instead of an airtight seal. Is this something to do with making it suitable to put in a microwave? Whatever the reason, and I would like to know it, there are serious performance issues with this product which only the purchase of tupperware will overcome.
Other matters
Found the belt! That’s one thing of my mind. I had thought I last wore the white jeans over the Christmas and perhaps checking in the suitcase used for that trip might be worth a try. There it was! I was very happy, which yes yes I know is probably an over reaction to the discovery of a lost, and not very expensive belt (though I treasure them when I find them as my slight figure makes belt acquisition a tricky business). ALTHOUGH I was hoping the camera might be there too. No sign yet, but the belt triumph has given me cause to hope.

A plus for using tupperware is that you can reuse it rather than simply binning it.
