Tuesday

 Good morning.  This is very late for me, half past eight.  After a late night chatting to Dave and Anna and a fair helping of the wine they brought with them, I slept like a log!  It was nice although it won't have done my Slimming World plans any good whatsoever!

Everything went well yesterday.
I decided to pop over to Morrisons in hopes that they had put out some Christmas produce out and they had.  I got wrapping paper, gift tags, streaky bacon for the pigs in blankets and what I really wanted, marzipan and royal icing.
Once home, I made the pigs and they are not in the freezer and ticked off my list!  Whatever happens, they won't be wasted.

It was a lovely evening.  We ate and drank and chatted and it was great.  It will be a while until the next time now but it's something to look forward to.

The only thing in the diary today is another attempt at a chat with Dad.  It turns out that he has a webcam and has connected it to his desktop so fingers are crossed that this time it might work OK.

Have a good day and be safe.  xx

    1. Absolutely no problems whatsoever. No queues, no shortages, a few gaps on the shelves but that's Morrisons anyway.
      It may have been different today, I don't know.

  5. Oh, great! I think I need one of those! I would love to try video chatting, but my computer and ipad are both pretty old. Glad to hear you have't had any problem shopping.

    1. It might be worth setting something up with a friend and seeing if it does work. Fingers crossed.

  6. I hope you got your chat with your Dad. I have done Skype once in awhile, but I think if we end up not being able to see eachother at Christmas I may try some video chats with the sons.

    God bless.
