Maybe why that's why the store is deserted - cr@p service?

Bear here..... ....who went to zeddyland with the full intention of goin' piddlin' in the pool this morning..... Could've, would've, should've.....didn't...... I made an Executive Decision and decided that "other tasks" could justify wimping out and doing them instead. So I did. These tasks? Well there's the washing to do, hopefully two exhaust pipes to saw in half 😱, There's Beary Will paperwork still to complete, a delivery is expected, din dins to cook...... ION...... VHBBW's the @Dave Hunt (if a little late on "condition"....) ; also BBW's to our fellow ER'er and Mascot Ben - who we all hope will be fine. Right, time to wiggle the Bearyfurryarse..... BG.....

Or perhaps they're dumping the Sainsbugs delivery for other companies?

😱

Bear here.... Another day at the Warehouse & out n' about - all good fun; 9.5K steps/3.5 miles today, according to Izzy the Iphone. Which is a good job cos' there was some naughtiness involving Jam Donuts** + other assorted goodies..... 😁 **Not entirely surprising cos' Bear visited Morrisons before arriving at the Warehouse....... The following was seen today - on the back of a Bakery Van: 🤣 ION..... I see Venice are to start charging 5 Euros to day visitors on selected days - and some on the ITV TV News are whingin' about it. 5 Euros for a day in Venice - and they're whingin' ?? Jeez, that's gotta be the bargain of the year in this Bear's Book. If you've never been - do go (but not in July & Aug) - and stay in the City if you can as it's a much better experience. Bear gone.

Stop yer whingin' - I let you live didn't I??

Sadly after seven years it looks as though he won't be going back. Money I suspect. Poo. At a guess I'd suggest "It all depends" - based on area, depot, how p1ssed off the staff are on that particular day etc. etc. Perhaps they should be fined (a quid? - going to the Customer) for every item that's unavailable.

3. If there's Cake then a Bear is close by.....and a Hippo.....

Bear here..... Another day at the Hospice Warehouse - busy but pretty uneventful; unfortunately there was a distinct lack of Donuts or cake today 😢 but the Manageress dashed to a nearby shop for some emergency choccy bikkies, so all was not lost. The book man had also managed to locate a travel guide to Malta for Bear, and an electronic crossword "helper" for a neighbour & friend of Bear's was also located by one of the Superstar Ladies working in the sorting room**; my friend was so pleased with it when I gave it to her I thought she was going to cry - she's notgottalot and living on a very limited income so it was a real result. Bear will naturally make suitable financial redress to the Charity accordingly..... **Not a job I could do - some people donate, well, cr@p (or unsuitable stuff such as knives) that has no chance of being sold whatsoever (or the money it was raise just doesn't justify the shop space or time taken to list on Ebay) - I think they do it just to save a trip to the local dump. Bear gone.....

The second one; does it have access to a communal garden - or is there a public one very close by? Private Gardens need maintenance, which may get more difficult with age - meaning getting someone to do it. The design design of the first one is very boxy and a bit weird. No doubt they're on a better earner with commission etc.

At the Great Empire there was a spate of bog wall poetry in one of the cubicles, starting with: "Here I sit, broken hearted....about to download when Taccy Bell started" Soon afterwards the HoD put a sign up, stating that he was most dismayed that seemingly intelligent people could be defacing the wall in such a manner...."and would those individuals please desist (that means stop it)" - To which someone wrote underneath: "B*llocks"

Cash withdrawal, anyone? https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/av/uk-england-beds-bucks-herts-68883799

Bear here....again.....just when you thought it was safe..... My last post was from The Pitstop, this one's from Bear Towers.....Hilly Wander wandered, including two ascents of The Killer Hill; it seems that Bear's Great Big D Adventure has somehow become stuck in Customs at the moment on the dreaded Big Seven-O. I won't be beaten..... Bear gone....

On money….. P&O were on the news last night - it seems they have been expecting some of their Channel Ferry staff to work 12 hour days, 7 days a week for up to 17 weeks. Without a day off. B’sterds. And for as little as a fiver an hour 🤬 Well the French have just sorted that - now it’ll be 2 weeks on, 2 weeks off or face the long arm of the Law. Pity our own spineless tw@ts in The Big House weren’t up to the job. Yep, Big Rant

When Bear refurbished the kitchen, lounge and H, S & L of Bear Towers it was the last one that I enjoyed least. Bear volunteers in the Warehouse at the Hospice; whilst the work couldn’t be described as Rocket Science I still find it interesting - what’s more I’m working with interesting, “real” people rather than those so far up their own ar5eholes they’re practically inside out. Bear will also investigate the private option - thanks for the heads-up.
