I read it in Waitrose. Very nice. Don't know how my hand managed to slip and pick up an OK mag by mistake.

Thanks jingle...that's where most of my family have been to read it. 
Annobel 
It's a lovely piece, soop.
Finally made it out of GNHQ (would like to be able to say into the sunlight, but there you go) and bought a copy. It was so exciting to see the article.
And the picture of Nana is charming! and 
and 
from all of us at GNHQ.
You went OUT! And got BACK?
Well done !
You deserve a medal for bravery!
They don't sell it in Asda or Tesco...
No upper-class supermarkets round here!
Is the picture of the gran anyone in particular? Or is it just a 'library' pic? 
It's weekly, number! I'll get mine from WH Smith. 
used to post pretty often.but now tend to be a bit of a lurker as been pretty busy with this that and the other.. 
(yes that is me sat in the corner keeping a beady eye on you all), but no doubt as the dark nights set in I shall creep out and have a few more posts..
We know you're still there, biker - life has a way of taking over, sometimes!
number, that'll be the reason -bet you were hovering over the Men's Health magazines again...
Who, Moi?
Thanks for appreciative comments Geraldine. And big to you lot for standing around supermarkets reading the article. All those fingered copies of the Lady sitting messily on the shelves! From time to time I'm asked to write something for the Lady. This time, I sent the copy and hoped for the best. Entire article was not printed. The editor has to make final decision based on how much space he can spare. The people in the retro pic are complete strangers to me. I submitted pic of Bags and me slurping but it was too late to be included . Under the Editor's letter, the pic is of my Nana and my son [when he was angelic!]
Soop great article so proud of you
Oh ok soop (re the picture). So I can say how odd the younger lady looked! Did we ever really look like that?!
Well, I went out and bought my copy today! I did think about furtively reading the article and putting the mag back, but thought No! I've never read The Lady and it's about time I did.
Lovely, warm article, soop - if I wasn't a member of GN already I'd want to be one after reading that.
Lovely article soop, well done. I bought my copy in WHS having browsed the shelves for ages (amazing what is on offer these days) I then had to ask the sales lady if they stocked it (silly question really, in Harpenden) and there it was on another set of shelves! I only frequent Harpenden occasionally so am not au fait with the shop layout!
