***APPLYING FOR THE JOB/INTERVIEW***
It was quite handy as I was un-employed and was desperate to get a job and I knew the assistant manager of the store where I wanted to work, so I had a very brief interview as I had worked with her before.
I just sat down with the manager and went through a few things with him ...

Advantages: Great prices, Great choice! Disadvantages: Very low stock levels, espicially at xmas!
to get someone to help me, but a few weeks later I knew what everything was and where they were. I was on about £5.80 an hour, which i thought was good.

Branston Baked Beans...................
I am very partial to baked beans on toast (covered in cheese) or indeed I have been known to eat them cold straight from the can either way I have always bought Heinz as they are literally the ultimate baked bean. However as Branston Baked Beans have been on special offer in Tesco's recently (buy 4 for £1) I snapped them up and was pleasantly surprised.
The Branston Baked Bean tin design is a lot different from that of the Heinz tin. Of course it still has a picture of some beans on the front but instead of the Heinz green label Branston's is silver and looks just as good as its rival.
The beans inside the tin look pretty much the same as Heinz with the thick red/orange sauce and the tin full to the top with beans and juice. The smell again is practically the same only Branston ...

Album Notes
Personnel: Coleman Hawkins (tenor saxophone); Benny Carter (alto saxophone); Don Byas (tenor saxophone); Roy Eldridge (trumpet); Lou Levy, Lalo Schifrin (piano); Herb Ellis (guitar); Max Bennett, Art Davis (bass); Gus Johnson, Jo Jones (drums). Producer: Norman Granz. Compilation producer: Eric Miller. Recorded in Zurich, Switzerland in October 1960 and in Paris, France in November 1960. Includes liner notes by Stanley Dance Digitally remastered by George Horn (Fantasy Studios, Berkeley, California). Recorded in Coleman Hawkins' later period, BEAN STALKIN' blends elements of swing and bebop in a unique manner. A live album, Hawk seems particularly inspired on the two dates heard here, a change from his rather sleepy studio albums from this period. The fiery, energetic playing by Hawkins' sidemen (including Roy Eldridge and Herb Ellis) add to the excitement. Highlights on BEAN STALKIN' include the uptempo "Crazy Rhythm" and the wild ruckus "Indiana (Back Home Again In)." On the former, Hawkins and Eldridge battle for supremacy. Fellow tenor man Don Byas and alto man Benny Carter add charm and diversity to "Take the 'A' Train." One of Hawkins' most memorable later records, BEAN STALKIN' is loaded with musical gems.
