    Trip to Liverpool - fab! I love it there. OH had a tiny flat on the river when she used to work there and it was wonderful. Niece is still there having stayed since uni. Have a wonderful time - and am loving your travel costs!

    Rhubarb and Liverpool - they go together, don't they :D:D:D

    I was going to see if Sainsbo had any whoopsies, but didn't fancy it, and then saw the pensioner lady had left another half dozen bags of leaves ready for me to collect. So I collected them :j
    On Tuesday, I think, I'll have to go round all the bags, water them, tie them up properly (they're rampaging around the garden at the moment :rotfl:).

    All is good :beer: and a mini bottle of wine has my name on it :beer:

    Enjoy your mini bottle of wine. I used to get those, as I unless I have friends round its a waste to open a full bottle.

    Why don't you get yourself a trolley?

    I hadn't done the mini-bottle thing for ages - I'd just use the same bottle for a few nights, but that *does* make you drink more wine (at my rate of consumption, anyway - four minibottles have currently lasted me a month, and one is unopened :) )!

    Z - I do have a trolley, and I use it all the time, but sometimes its nice to go out without proclaiming to the whole world that I can't cope with carrying ordinary stuff!

    There won't be much going on here today - I have the bulk of this week's work *today* :eek:

    I could just go for miz's OH's tiny flat on the Liverpool waterfront right now ... sounds lovely! Mind you, I'm very happy with what I did in the garden yesterday, and my plans for it :)

    Tiny flat on the waterfront is *exactly* what I want when I downsize from this.

    I'm waiting with bated breath for the diving tickets for next month .... buying some for my sister and my niece ... here I go, its 9.59!


    ETA - Ha! Got them - boy, they really make you jump through hoops, as well as timing your jumps on each page _pale_ I need another cup of coffee after that :rotfl:

    Verrrry frosty here today, as everywhere else, I suppose - I'm working at the computer today, figuring out how to become a millionaire by the time I retire :cool: for which I'll need a *lot* more coffee :D
