Right …
Did you see where I put my iron … ?
More to the point, did you see where I put my posh trousers?
I think I’m going to need both, frankly … !
“OK,” I hear you ask.
“Why DOES Paul want me to find his trousers?”
Well …
I’ve got an interview, today: at my local post office.
Which, of course means, I’ll be needing my posh shoes and trousers. And need an iron, so I can iron a shirt.
Oh …
And will possibly need to print out a copy of my CV and references. I just hope the printers at the library are working, today.
I think I’m going to need them …

* My pleasure, Olga! (The same basics — trade-in and business discount/financing — apply to their laptops: JUST so you know.) And, yes … I think we can say I thoroughly enjoyed Dr Who … !
