    Lazy day planned today. I’m worn out despite sleeping 10 hours. I am going to local theatre this evening with a friend to see the story of The Dubliners….no idea what to expect but I do like a bit of Irish music….reminds me of my childhood. My dad was a great singer 😄 it’ll be a very late night as I’m usually tucked up by 9 these days, asleep by 10…..Dh is dropping us off as the usual parking places have been boarded off as they are making a fancy new bus station and lots of roads have been closed down….it’ll be a couple of years of disruption at least 😳😳
    I need to do a big shop before the family descend on Sunday…..I’m at a loss what to buy as Dd is on a special diet and the children were having an unusual faddy stage last time I saw them. At one time they ate anything and everything. I’ll get some inspiration when I hit the shop and see what they have in. Whenever I go will certainly not be a NSD….Can’t face it today though….I’m just chilling until tonight.

    Enjoy the theatre tonight. I can remember my mum having a Dubliners album when I was a little girl. Stories of how bands got together are usually really interesting so it should be a good night. Our city centre has just had a new bus station and car park, they've been building it forever and they've closed off loads of roads, I think it finally opens this week, although it wasn't when I passed it on my way to work on Wednesday.

    We do try to get out when we can……SSG……not always expensive trips…..but right through our lives when health has predicted we have to stay in for one or another family member……made us appreciate the days we can get out…..live for the moment 👍😁

    Some photos from the pub yesterday. There were a lot more but didn’t want to take photos with people in. We’ve booked at the end of November to see the Christmas decks 😁

    Has anyone spotted my teeth in the photo above……
    I’d been around to Morrison’s the other evening. They were hurting on my way home and I took them out and put them in my pocket…..must have pulled my keys out of my pocket and my teeth fell behind the flowerpots by my doorstep. Dh has just spotted them and asked me to go out and look at the flowers….I thought he was cracking up….then I spotted them. Neighbour came out to see if I was ok I was laughing so hard…..she thought I was crying 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
    I can go out and relax when I smile with no gaps 😂😂😂😂😂😂
