Saturday

Good morning, everyone.  Another chilly, dull start to the day out there but I've got what I need from the freezer in the shed so I can now warm up again.

After picking up my now fully functional hearing aid, I decided to have a stroll around the town.  I meandered down to John Lewis and found a beautifully soft, burgundy jumper, just my colour, looked at the price label and hastily returned it to the rack.  Ouch!
If I was at target weight, I might have considered it as an investment sort of thing, but not yet!

I consoled myself by finding some toggles to finish off the Aran cardigan and some navy gloves that were on my list.  I wore them home and they are very comfortable and cosy-warm.

I found a few hamper things in M&S, which was great.  I saw a few more items in other shope that I need to consider.  I can go back in another time - it's so easy on the bus.

Thyen I went to Morrisons to get some shopping for me and also some things for Beth.  After that, Beth arrived and we pottered around doing this, that and the other.  I spent the evening ironing and watching telly so that, at least, was profitable.

Today I have no definite plans although I notice I have written about a Christmas Market in town which I might look at (bus again - no parking worries!).  I know - going into town two days on the trot but hey, I'm retired and it's coming up to Christmas.  Any excuse.
Actually, I have just thought of a reason to go - I need more parchment and Morrisons didn't have any in testerday.  Lakeland, here I come!

After that, I'll probably fall asleep!  What a life, eh!
