Chippy tea! #WWM2021

I racked my brains where to take my World Wide Minute photo tonight.
Somewhere with a person in it.....the builders had gone home so it was to the village chip shop I went!
Such a smiley faced girl & after I explained she was very happy to have her photo taken.
Just noticed I’m 3 minutes early with my photo! 😨

Three good things:
1. I think I might have cracked the internet problem...fingers crossed!
2. The birds were singing their hearts out this evening.
3. Two green bins collection for a year paid for.
Nice to see smiles rather than hidden behind masks.. Can almost smell the F&C's..

Great capture

@julzmaioro They were delicious & a three minute walk down the road...I could get used to living right in the village! 🤣

I haven't heard of World Wide Minute?? Great to see such a happy girl who loves her job! I'm always surprised to find that some people have to pay for bin collection!! We must be lucky to live where we do.

@busylady It’s just the green bin for garden rubbish Judith. £30 a bin for the year...we have paid for two for this next year as we expect to have more than usual.

I vaguely recall hearing of world wide minute some other year, but I can’t remember much. I don’t think I participated.
We have to pay for one gray trash barrel and then get one free recycling barrel of any size. I get the small trash and medium recycling for $65 each 3 month period. Then twice a year that gives us a large item free and then an electronic pick up day and a Christmas tree day and free yard clippings.

A lovely capture. Love her smile.

@pandorasecho Ooh quite complicated to work out what you have to pay for then Dixie. Sounds like it works out quite expensive! All our other bins are free apart from the garden waste. Interesting info.

A lovely smile behind her face shield. How nice of her to help you for WWM. Um, I think you've got too many w's in your tag.

Chip butty of chip barm Pat? There's a row going on on FB. I say chip butty and I think I always have but apparently thats not Lancashire...
March 15th, 2021  
I love it! Perfect for WWM. @fueast well a chip nutty can be on a barm cake but not exclusively- that’s my assessment!
March 15th, 2021  
@judithg is a chip nutty the posh Cambridge version with added pistachios?
March 15th, 2021  
@fueast aargh!! I’ve got a southern iPad that can’t cope with butty!
March 15th, 2021  
A wonderful look at your moment in time at 5:44. I wish I were going to be some place interesting at 5:47 for my WWM...but I suspect it will be a photo of dinner prep at home. ☺
March 15th, 2021  
What a nice smile!
March 15th, 2021  
You would think her face shield would get all steamed up with the hot f&c! I remember a world photo some years back - at 5.47pm wasn't it!
March 15th, 2021  
@maggiemae Yes that’s the same one maggie, they do it every year. Good memory! No no steam but there’s lots of a gap between her face & the screen.

@peggysirk it’s a difficult time I think Peggy...so very near evening meal time. I would find it easier mid afternoon when you can get out & about!
March 15th, 2021  
@fueast Of definitely a chip butty....where does barm come in..🤣🤣🤣
March 15th, 2021  
@kwiksilver Thanks Gillian & you are right, I will alter it!
March 15th, 2021  
@judithg Preston girls such as me, @fueast & you will know it as buttys I would think, I had never heard of a barm cake round here, tea cake or bun but always a chip butty!
March 15th, 2021  
@happypat I knew I was right. Will have to have a word with my Preston friend.
March 15th, 2021  
@fueast I should think so....she must be a foreigner from other parts! 🤣🤣🤣🤣
March 15th, 2021  
@happypat she's a he from Penwortham. That might explain it.
March 15th, 2021  
Love this! Love her smile. I saw this on the WWM site! 😊
March 15th, 2021  
Pat you photo has not gone to the wwm2021 page I think you have confused it with the #..
March 15th, 2021  
I have had internet issues and haven't commented - don't have time to go back three days. BUt am looking at your pictures on the side - All Lovely - First time I have missed the World Wide Moment in a few yesr. SHUCKS'
March 15th, 2021  
Yummy , I like your capture
March 15th, 2021  
So nice to see your local shop employees cooperating. Thanks for participating in World Wide Minute 2021!
March 16th, 2021  
I haven't had fish and chips for ages. Hope they were delicious
March 16th, 2021  
Great smile
March 16th, 2021  
She made a great subject, and the smile was an added joy
March 16th, 2021  
I had to look up what the World Wide Minute was. Pretty cool! Great shot!
March 16th, 2021  
@julzmaioro Oh really Julz...that won’t do although Paula has commented on it....must check thank you!
Well I have checked & scrolled down all the posts up there but can’t see yours either...I’m sure there are more entries there somewhere....if it’s not up it’s not up...it’s quite difficult to work it out but Paula did comment on both ours so I think it’s fine Julz. It tells you to add the # bit. X
March 16th, 2021  
That's a really lovely face with that wonderful smile. Makes you want to return as soon as you can.
March 16th, 2021  
Great shot for the challenge!
March 16th, 2021  
So good you were able to get a person in your shot!
Well done!
March 16th, 2021  
Great shot
March 16th, 2021  
Did you really need an excuse for the photograph, just so you can have chips.
March 16th, 2021  
great storytelling and a photo that is a credit to the minutes challenge
March 16th, 2021  
Great shot. Isn’t sit such a pain when the internet fails!
March 17th, 2021
