Joy and nameless ....

I too distinguish between State and Public, vs public and private, as North America is the same as Australia, and I do like to be sure that EVERYONE is certain about what I am talking.


Now find fault with that ;-)

I confess I haven’t paid any attention when the ad comes on the tv - but I will in future.

Thinking about what you originally said about it as you can’t buy the meals in the shops you can’t compare prices to see if the delivery is free or not.

I do have some acquaintances who think that free is actually an age ;-)

I know someone who would argue 'four' isn't a number - it's a golfing term ;-)

SylviainCanada - you don't ask much, do you? :-S

Well done, Allan. I knew Portugal was in the same time zone.
I'd phone my mum, (who lived in Portugal) to see how she was, and every time, she'd ask me why I'd phoned her, as an interesting programme had started on TV!
Strangely, an interesting programme had started in the UK, too, but I thought it important to see how my mum was :-S
