Walked the dog at 7.30 still blowing a gale. Bumped into a friend walking her dog & walked with them having a socially distanced chat which was nice 😊 
Sunny & windy. DS’s gf washed all their work kit so I will do a wash tomorrow. It clouded over about 3pm and we had a very few spots of light rain about 4.15 pm but it’s full sun again now. 

Got quite a few jobs done on my list. That’s it now for the rest of the day I am relaxing with feet up ☺️

What a productive day and how nice to bump into a friend too, sounds like you definitely benefited from seeing her.

Hope you have a lovely evening and a good meal.

Had a frozen home made curry last night for tea with half a pack of microwave rice & 1 microwave popadom 😋 then a banana muffin for pud 😁 

Had a bit of a lie in this morning until 6. DS & gf took the dog to the forest last night about 8pm they got back at 9.30 & she was worn out & very happy. So she was still tired this morning & not waiting for breakfast at 5am!  I fed her at 6.30am, went back to bed & slept until 9 ! 

Have been out with her for a walk & then I had strawberries & yoghurt for breakfast. Am just going to have another banana muffin 😆 will leave the rest for DS & gf to eat or I will be the size of a house! Forgot to weigh myself today. 

Am going to look for a new microwave & kettle online and try to find a bargain. There seems to be a few on sale / reduced. Both are making funny noises & there is a bit of rust on the microwave. It is over 20 years old so has done well !

Gosh that was a good dinner you had! Well deserved too.

Can DS and GF take PD out like that more often so you get a lie in 🤭

Have fun looking for small kitchen appliances, so much choice and too many bells and whistles with some of them.

Enjoy the rest of you day.

Gosh that sounds yum. Blimey doggie will be sleeping all day today! I hope you are chilling in the garden.

I’ve ordered a new microwave ☺️ Was a good deal at John Lewis so I paid a little extra for next working day delivery & it is due on Tuesday. Should get a text Tuesday morning with a one hour delivery slot. Would have been cheaper to get free delivery but then you could guarantee it would turn up when I’m in the middle of a field with the dog ! 

As DS & gf work shifts can’t guarantee they would hear the door for delivery any other time. 

Took me all morning to find what I was looking for. Just wanted a basic microwave with push buttons. This one has 1 min, 10 second, 30 seconds & 10 minute.  It has a couple of “pre-set” buttons but to be honest I didn’t really want any of those. I agree MF, too many bells & whistles. 

I made burgers for lunch with some mince & onions with chilli, paprika & garlic powder. Had one with salad & chopped gherkins. Yum 😋 One left for tomorrow. 

Have put out a load of washing. Am now going to look for a new kettle with free delivery. May get one using my free trial of amaxon prime. John Lewis didn’t have what I wanted.

I'm surprised you managed to find suitable microwave so quickly! JL are good for electricals and have long guarantees, which are worth the extra few quid at times.

Hope you manage to find the right kettle as easily,d forget to make a note of when your free trial ends and cancel it!
