Thursday

Good morning.  Weather

I went out to Aldi yesterday.  Oh dearlie, dearie me.  The intent was good - I wanted to stock up with loo roll (I like their 4 -ply stuff) and kitchen towel.  To be fair, I did, I'm not well supplied with those particular necessities.  But . . .

. . . they had yarn.  Lots of yarn.  And fat quarters.  Aaarrrggghhh.  I was very good, honestly.  I didn't get the tinsel yarn, I didn't get the DK, I didn't get the lovely soft baby yarn.  But I did get three whopping big balls of Aran in a gorgeous shade called 'damson'.  Ooops!  They jumped in my trolley, honest!  I can see a lovely Aran jumper being my holiday knitting at some point in the year.

I carried on round and they had craft storage boxes, a bit like tool boxes, perfect for my pottery tools.  Did I get one?  Well, of course I did!

I got a few more bits and bobs too but nothing untowards.

Then I went on to the parcels office expecting to pick up a parcel and came home with two.  That was nice.

Today is a pretty empty day which doesn't mean there's nowt to do, of course, it just means nothing in the diary until the evening.  That's great because I need to do some clearing and sorting and general houseworky type stuff and I quite fancy taking the bus into town this morning  Also, at SW this evening, it's a taster evening.  The last two times I have taken snacky type stuff so this time I shall make and take the delightfully named 'syn free dirty rice' (basically rice with mince and veg).  I shall make it earlier and then heat it to piping before spooning it all into a flask or two so it should be good and hot when it comes to nibble time.

If I'm going to get the bus at nine, I need to get going so I'll stop now.  Have a super day, whatever your plans.
