Is irony connected with blast furnaces?
My mother asked if the homewares shop that is closing down has closed down yet. If not, she said, pop in and see if they have any Euro Scrubby Cloths left. Well, no, what she actually said was "any of those dishcloths", but I knew what she meant. They're her favourite.
So I went round the corner during my lunch break, but, alas, the homewares shop was all out of dishcloths. I bought a few other things from the bargain table: a set of four different sized reusable silicon lids, a microplane grater, a cherry pipper.
Back at work, my transfer to the parent company is complete. As part of my orientation process, I had to do an online educational module about workplace health and safety. I now know not to run around corners while holding a hot cup of coffee.
