Resumed my morning Pilates, felt good to stretch.

The weather was better than forecasted so two lots of laundry dried outside.

Over to the yard and girlie got a workout too.

My beloved did a shop and found everything on the list including yeast, happy dance.

Tasty tea, Goats cheese and lentil salad.

Good morning

More excitement yesterday!  I went to the chemist! It was the smoothest prescription pick up I've ever done.  Usually something is missing or they can't find the prescription but this time I gave my name and they gave me the bag!  

Walking back through the village it seemed most shops were open, in various inventive ways.  I hope it helps local businesses survive. Perhaps I should have bought something but I'm trying hard to have minimum interaction for a while.

I'm pleased  animal parks can open soon.  We have an excellent one close by that DS and family have annual passes for.   It seemed so random that NT parks could open and they couldn't.  Fingers crossed it will be caravan sites next so we can go and say hello to our caravan.  Not seen it at all this year!

Lovely sunny day yesterday so did more gardening.  Sorted through the cushions in the shed and found some suitable for the new bench.  I will re-cover them when I can get some fabric, but they'll do for now.

Rain today so inside jobs needed.

Happy Wednesday(?) everyone

Hello all, sorry I've been missing, it's been a strange week. Pleasures for yesterday...

Out for a walk with the HT

Bought some bedding plants from a general everything type shop on the way home to fill a few gaps in the garden

Went through a few recipe books with HT to find some new meals that we can try as I'm fed up making the same food over and over.

Took a Hebe plant up to my friend who is finally sorting out her garden after years of ignoring it. We had a socially distanced glass of pop out on her decking. 

A couple of hours of online gaming and chat with best friend as he's off work this week so was free mid week.

Yesterday was a generally good day.

Take care all of you and DD I've sent you a message

Everything you see here is ...

Freedom View. The look from the New Workshops on Alcatraz. I doubt anyone swam home from here, when I came back inn the boat from the Golden Gate Bridge, as the tide cam in, just off this island was a swirling edge, that was a drop of around 10ft. With that and the swirl, no chance of an escape!

Friths. Got to admire the decoration, looks like an old chemistry lesson gone wrong! Mionds me of a call from me gaffer when I worked at KKIA in Riyadh, I used to brew the yeasts, and told customers they should never add more sugar to their broths! One morning, me gaffer rungs up and says they was a bit of a mess and he will be late inn. When he came inn, he said I only started putting some top up sugar inn the broth and boom! He believed me after that, never ever add top up sugar to the broth. Mind you, the wines were fine as well!

Nows with your version of the Life of BoP

Took BoPsie to her salt mine this morning to do some bits and nipped off to the emporium to top up the wobbleades, we is gettings the whine inn later.

Has booked the corner house again for FryDay. More fish and chips. Proper foods. Sweets and chocolate for the journey has also been purchased from the emporium. Please be careful ifs yous go to the emporium and use the trolley like a six foot barge pole! 

Had the mackerel and shrimp kedgeree last eve. BoPsie was doing most of the stirring last night so it had extra flavours! Water was drinked.

Watched the final Hangover Part III. Very good and wobbleades and cheese were consumed! Tonites we has Das Boot. See above above the wobbleades!

PM2DD Luton are playing again! I guess I will bee a Hatter for a while, mind you, we finished above the rusted irons.

Rites wes offs out to fill BoP's Motor, for FryDay, and get the whine inn! So that is all for this day
I'm going to throw this at you!

Frith whatever happened? The only time my kitchen had a similar disaster was when I boiled the eggs dry and they exploded everywhere. I think it was made worse because I had an egg timer with them that played different tunes dependent on whether you wanted soft, medium or hard boiled eggs. I can’t remember where I bought that timer but it was brilliant, til it exploded. If anyone knows a supplier of musical egg timers please let me know.

Cranky, I know what you mean about weird weeks. I'm just contemplating buying a few plants to fill in the last gaps, I'm limited online to pink, pink or a shade of pink. hmmm

Frith, that would wake you up quickly.

1 The first nights good sleep in a very long time, has made a lot of difference.

2 Shopping and other deliveries all received, feeling thankful and stocked up for the next long while.

3 Took the plunge and bagged up some things I have been keeping hold of, it feels better to create the space than the clutter things.

4 Warm chicken and pots, with a full salad is tonight’s grub.

5 I did some in depth meal planning, and re educated myself in low everything cooking to make sure DH stays free and clear from the diabetes, as using diet and exercise we managed to get the type 2 diabetes sorted, had to switch to plant stenols to get the cholesterol under control but that also worked and neither are a problem, but we have been prone to slipping as shielding made it very difficult to get a few bits, safe to say we are now stocked enough to last a year for healthy things.

6 The power of music, absolute 80’s streaming in the background had me singing more than ever, possibly a bad thing for all the animals.

ampersand
