Whirring, click, clonk, whirring, click, clonk, whirring, click, clonk, swoosh.
Gaggle of package holiday makers jostling, crowding,
Scrutinising each other’s use of tongs:
Selecting from thin white, seeded, wholemeal;
Feeding into the top of the machine;
Replacing tongs; and
Uncertainly, shuffling away.
Not too far!
Whirring, click, clonk, whirring, click, clonk, whirring, click, clonk, swoosh.
Impatiently, standing vigil, avoiding eye contact; enviously observing the takers.
Whirring, click, clonk, whirring, click, clonk, whirring, click, clonk, swoosh.
Queuing participants noting; who’s before, who’s next.
Finally!
Grab butter or Flora?
I should have decided while waiting!
Honey, jam, marmalade, Vegemite, and or peanut butter?
Whirring, click, clonk, whirring, click, clonk, whirring, click, clonk, swoosh.
Those still standing by silently watch the victorious hunter gatherer strut to their table.
I hate flies with a passion. It gives me satisfaction to see them thwarted.
Those lovely covers seem to be a wonderful deterrent. 🙂
They very effective. My sister-in-law inspired me when she said she was getting rid of the fixed covers in favour of the fold down variety.
I may need to find (or make) something like these. 🙂
