Letter to the Editor

Ed, my old neighbour in Saskatchewan, had a question for me yesterday.

Dear Editor Aha! SaskPower (the elephant) has acknowledged the noisy mouse in the room (that would be me).

Dear Editor I have no car, so took a bus to go shopping. I bought two pillows. It is our 61st wedding anniversary. I wanted one big bag to carry on the bus. Got the run around. She said she couldn鈥檛 give me a big bag. I paid for pillows.

In its recent budget, the Newfoundland and Labrador government announced it will introduce a tax of 20 cents per litre on sugary drinks, starting on April 1, 2022. This a first in Canada.

A few weeks ago I was talking with the daughter of a beloved family friend. For privacy I will refer to the little girl as Suzy. Suzy is four years old and she was telling me how her favourite show was Peppa the Pig. Intrigued I asked her why.

鈥淎sk not what your vermin can do for you 鈥�,鈥� quipped my cousin Cindy as we deliberated, through texts, the merits of this much-maligned beast. Prior to our unusual discussion, she鈥檇 sent me a news article from Vice World News.

I found it hard to choose a theme for this week鈥檚 article, not because there weren鈥檛 ideas in my head but rather that there were so many. On a positive note, our son arrived this weekend for a short but most welcome visit.
