Almost there

More traditions. Christmas Eve, first thing. Collect the turkey.
Shame about the weather.
The same little posse of people outside, waiting to go in and get it done. At least this year we were a good-humoured bunch who shared our disapproval of the man who’d come wearing his pyjamas. We have standards!
I’d got most of the things we needed yesterday but there were a few that I’d forgotten/decided to leave till today.
My hero was rather pleased to be able to claim the first turkey collection of the day – and he assures me, he didn’t run
Before leaving, I thought I’d check out a newspaper cover that I’d heard about on the radio as I was getting up. Is the Mirror turning Welsh then? Or could there be another reason for the way they styled the masthead this morning? I’m sure you worked it out a bit quicker than some around here and realised it’s a small tribute to my online chum Stasher?
Time to go home then.
Let the fun begin!

Please explain...its like one of those cryptic clues which I can never solve! Standards indeed, we walked to town this morning, nicely dressed. We bought a few things from our lovely market. After all they turned up despite the pouring rain, it would be rude not to go and spend some money. Lovely olives, nice blue goats cheese, fruit and veg and the shops are only closed for one day!
'Splain it to ME TOO!!! Here in NY since it is 70 degrees mayhap it has boiled my brain, but I don't get it either..
