gone but not forgotten
Now in my 83rd year, there are two numbers that are ingrained into my brain. My army number, and my mothers Co-Op number....14716. In a recent visit to our local Co-Op, the young man at the checkout asked me if I had a Co-op number (which I do not), and I said "Yes, 14716, it belongs to Mrs Haynes". He looked at me in amazement, realised that I was joking, and said "That is a very old number". I said that had she still been alive, she would be 104.
