Reading your last post inspired me to do something today that I find incredibly difficult. It sounds like a trivial thing to most, but I find it very difficult.
I went for a bike ride after work and before I left I promised myself a portion of chips on the way home. Normally I ride to the shop look through the window and bottle it and go home a have a sandwich or something. I have a thing about queuing for food and almost always retreat from the situation, I once didn’t eat for 4 days in wales because I just couldn’t do it. But not this time, I took a tiny bit of courage from your writing and went in to the shop. I managed to order my chips, normally if I get to the counter I end up getting the first thing on their list, even if I don’t like and won’t eat it. It went a bit wrong from there in, as I’d lost my bank card and they had already put salt and vinegar on before I noticed the loss. They were lovely though and said I could just pay next time I was passing. So now I have to go back in the shop again, I’m sure I can do that. They were so great (chip were fab too, Grosvenor Fish Bar Norwich if you’re ever passing)
Do thank you Halyley for your help today
