    Just back from the monthly street market - it's only the second one but just as good as the first, with more food stalls. I've got a big bag of broad beans, a lot of fresh, local lamb and treated DH to some bakery. We're just working our way through an Eccles cake nom nom. The market is a great idea as the butchers and greengrocers shops all closed as the area became a student dormitory; if you want a takeaway or cheap booze, there's a selection of shops. If you want proper food you need a car.

    Last night DH was bored & out of sorts so he helped me sort out the middle bed room for an hour :D nothing demanding, just putting the cases back up on shelves, pushing the bed round and attaching the headboard. He cheered up when he got his screwdriver out :o We found several things that can go to the CS too.

    Today we're painting in the garden as it is sunny here - we got the rain and clouds yesterday.

    Enjoy the holiday week end, x
    I can cook and sew, make flowers grow.
