Shopping in the village

Today being sunny and a little warmer than of late, Wilson popped in to the village to buy more ingredients for his 'warm snow' invention.

When he returned he had just one tub, explaining cheerfully, 'Talcum powder is way more expensive than I expected — its cost might jeopardise my entire invention!'

I was puzzled why he didn't seem at all upset by this realisation, so I enquired whether he'd done anything else while he was out.

'Well, it's funny you should ask,' he replied, 'but I was right by the Travel Agents and they've got some brilliant deals — it would probably be cheaper to go away on holiday than it would be to stay at home…'

Also, Wilson has just told me that today is World Pangolin Day, so he'll be cooking something a bit special for dinner tonight, by way of celebration!
