So what is timesnewroman? It's not the font, rather my take on the age we live in. The USA is the new Rome and the times we live in are timesnewroman.

Supermarket GridlockWent to Tesco's last night. 7.30pm., got home 9.20pm. It's not far and we didn't get the much. The place was absolutely mobbed. Apparently the shop is going to be closed for a couple of days hence the madness descends on the entire populace of Irvine who have to buy every bloody thing they have on the shelves. For convenience we bought 75% of a bag of ice cubes, well that's what was left when we got home. thewife had previously had a stressful day so I reckoned bit of consumer therapy with the promise of chocolate along the way would be ideal. Not so! By the end of ordeal it was me that was stressed, queues that wouldn't have disgraced a Polish butcher on a good day sometime in the early 80s. Good job we bought plenty if vino!
