The upside was that I met another customer who took me to The Original Factory shop which I didn't know was there. TA mentioned it in another thread so I was delighted to find it. What a lot of stuff they have.
GERS - If you ever come across a branch of the Yorkshire Trading Co have a browse in there! It leaves the Factory Shop standing with all the stuff it sells!! As a member of staff once said to me "If we don't sell it, you don't need it". It's a veritable Aladdins Cave of stuff and the staff always seem to know exactly where something is, how it works and how to use it! Good selection of birdie supplies in there too!
Oh JUDI I was gipping reading your post. Poor you, what a sight to greet you first thing in the morning!
We have just had a snow shower here but fortunately it didn't last long. The sky looks none too promising though. Here we go again!"If you dream alone it will remain just a dream. But if we all dream together it will become reality"0 -
Afternoon all
We have a DGD here today, we collected her this morning & took her to Hobycraft, she chose some more loom bands & I bought a magazine.
We treated her to fish & chips for lunch and then we've made a stuffed owl since we got home.
Next it's a film & some popcorn & then bed.
Have a good evening everyone.

Have just finished sewing one of two big window seats for DD's house.
Making roast veg and marinated chicken for tea with a few home made chips for DH.
Hospital visit on Thursday said DH's skin cancer has stopped growing and there is some improvement so very happy. Can't quite take in good news for change but very relieved and thankful.
Have two of DDs home as well as eldest so enjoying a fairly full house.
New photos taken of the house and a few details changed on Rightmove but quite relieved we have not had any viewers yet with DH having been so ill. Need to get my sensible head on and realise downsizing to a bungalow is the best thing for us in the next couple of years.
Hugs to all."This site is addictive!"

Brilliant news Elona. So pleased to hear your DH news regarding his fight with cancer.
My day was busy... as usual. The girls seem ok. No more accidents thankfully. My Grandson is tucked up in bed.
My daughter and her fianc! went to choose wedding rings today. Youngest and his girlfriend have had an argument and my oldest daughter has had a new tattoo. Oh dear its supposed to be a work of art. I'm not a fan. I haven't told her that though. I haven't lied either I told her it was very her.This is a system account and does not represent a real person.

Back home from our day out in Norwich and what a lovely day it was .Wet and nasty until we got into Essex, then as we travelled further up into Norfolk the weather although cold was sunny and dry.Arrived at lunchtime and we took Ben and his GF Katie out to lunch which was really nice in a pub by the river (and they didn't object to the two dogs who sat quietly under the table ) then we drove to Wroxham and hired a boat for an hour and had a short trip up river to Wroxham Broad and back. Katie (Ben's Gf) is a lovely lass and had never been on the Broads before so was really excited. We saw quite a few birds including several Herons.Then came back to UEA and got him some bits and pieces for his food stash and finally left to come hom around 6.
Just got in and Ben's GF has emailed me to say thank you for a lovely day.bless her its so nice when youngsters are polite. I was brought up to thank people and she obviously has been as well. Ben is lucky to not only find such a pretty lass, but one who is polite and well-mannered.She is doing bio-medicine and hopes to get into med-school eventually and become an oncologist.A thoroughly nice lass whom his Grandma approves of:):).Ben is a very lucky young man.
Right I'm off to make a cuppa,but no biscuits as I am abstaing from my ginger nuts for Lent:):) a real hardship for a ginger nut like me
:):)
