The chemist said only three would be needed. “One dry, one drying and one in use.” he said. “After a couple of months they’ll have covered the cost of disposables and then you’re saving.”
“True.” Aunt Katinka said. “But I think we’ll stick to disposables for the time being. You don’t want to be washing out your nappy every morning do you William?” I shook my head and felt a great relief as Auntie told me to get myself a pack of normal nappies. “You’d best grab a forty pack William.” she told me as I picked up a twenty pack. “They work out much cheaper.” she said. She sauntered slowly towards the counter, looking at everything else that aisle had to offer. The chemist was refolding and putting the re-usable nappies back where he’d got them from and would be a few minutes yet.
