Jean bought a Ewbank Carpet Sweeper from the PDSA (Peoples Dispensary For Sick Animals) in Bramley. She prefers it to the hoover because its not so heavy. She does her excercises at the same time as cleaning the floor – but not the splits! She’s bought two in the past year and given one to her daughter and kept the other. She thinks her sweeper is a cracker!

I bought a pair of black Converse high tops at a charity shop recently – it was magical timing as I had been reminiscing about my college days – the last time I had a pair! I used to wear them with miniskirts NOWADAYS the mini skirts are gone but the Converse still make me remember a particular Ramones concert in Philadelphia!

I bought a necklace for 10p in the YMCA in Armley. I took it for the jewellers for a new clasp – he told me the clasp would be about £30 becasue the necklace was 18 carat and he said it was worth between £3000 and £5000. I was shocked.
It was the best 10p I’ve ever spent. Now my Mam has the necklace as she said it looks better on her than me.
