I confess that I have received more than one surprise ebay package with only the faintest recollection of having bid on an item with a glass of white rioja in one hand and the mouse in the other LOL!

Sounds intriguing! Ken Alison, you’re taking ‘rural’ to a whole new level. I reckon most people who had to drive for a couple of minutes to get to a shop would consider themselves rural.

A ferry? I don’t think I’d ever leave!

Our little town here has really suffered with the closure of Woolies and now anything from a child's birthday present to a muffin tray needs to be purchased either on the mainland (ie you need to pay for the ferry) or by tinternet!
