I'm waiting for the flour spurt really although, to be fair, I have plenty of bread and I have some old strong flour which is probably still perfectly OK.<br />xxJoyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16116524003944939298noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5648310406783744033.post-84509464242982846962020-03-27T13:32:58.767+00:002020-03-27T13:32:58.767+00:00Wasn't it lovely of her?

I'm really please and I think they will go great with leggings/jeggings.<br />xxJoyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16116524003944939298noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5648310406783744033.post-26223198531475372332020-03-27T13:31:08.838+00:002020-03-27T13:31:08.838+00:00I've not seen any of Mike Jeavon's latest ...I've not seen any of Mike Jeavon's latest 'Week On … ' yet, I must have a catch up. My favourite ever Week On that he did was the 'Week on M&S Yellow Sticker Shopping'. How lovely to find those eggs first things, some people are being so thoughtful. xxSue https://www.blogger.com/profile/04947919568474743963noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5648310406783744033.post-55673462861879010502020-03-27T11:14:21.488+00:002020-03-27T11:14:21.488+00:00What a lovely surprise!

I've noticed it seems to go in spurts - sometimes they have certain items and other times it's something else. I went early yesterday. I managed to get everything I needed plus some more bleach wipes and some loo roll. I'm hoping we've got what we need for the week. I am still getting out for my morning walk - earlier than normal though. I think if I didn't go I would be tempted to just sit and get lost in a book all day so I wouldn't have to think about real life. <br /><br />Hope you have a good day!Sharonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03039174572211086359noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5648310406783744033.post-32452337438095129302020-03-27T10:47:39.988+00:002020-03-27T10:47:39.988+00:00That's so thoughtful of the mum to think of yo...That's so thoughtful of the mum to think of you about the eggs. I've ordered a tray of 30 to be delivered with a veg box so will be freezing most of them ... not something I've done before but it'll be lovely to have eggs on hand again. <br /><br />I like the colours you've chosen for your knitting.Eileen Thttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06340398156618870705noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5648310406783744033.post-48272871645386406682020-03-27T06:10:17.493+00:002020-03-27T06:10:17.493+00:00Yes, I think that by and large, it is.

I was chatting to an elderly fried in the queue at Morrisons and we said the same thing - that all this community support and helping each other is just too good to lose.<br />People are so kind and I'm glad you were on the receiving end too. Heartwarming, isn't it.<br />xxJoyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16116524003944939298noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5648310406783744033.post-65087151958607463392020-03-27T05:59:52.389+00:002020-03-27T05:59:52.389+00:00Morning Joy, what a lovely thing to happen, we als...Morning Joy, what a lovely thing to happen, we also were given a dozen eggs earlier this week by our neighbours. They're a young family, she'd been shopping and managed to get 2 boxes of eggs, they don't use a lot but she knows I do, so got the extra box for me, how kind of her. And she wouldn't take any money either, so husband gave her some of our homegrown leeks which she was happy to have. I think this crisis is bringing out the best in people, by and large. Have a good day, Joy. xxSoozehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03762391472811785736noreply@blogger.com
