DfV The butchers box was a local offer, DH liked it I think it was the free cherry pie that swayed it, we might possibly opt for once every 2 months, we’ll see.
&, They are great photo's, and also thinking of you, with the op tomorrow.
Not a pleasure, I had an unpleasant pain flair the worst for a long time, but thankfully it’s subsiding, in fairness I am lucky as I have it under great control normally..
1 HM chicken pie packed with all good things.
2 A day back from urgent plans, that have been postponed.
3 I ordered DH a couple of lightweight fleece jacket things, as he went to put on last years one which is now 3 sizes to big. The jacket was on sale and also a voucher, it’s also a bright royal blue, he loves colour.
4 I made a cheat jus rol cinabon thing as a treat, they were ridiculously easy, I know not HM but used it up.
5 A chat with DB.

Good morning Everyone......Posters and Lurkers and those too busy or poorly. 😘
Yesterday
1. DH went to the tip, so some more rubbish removed from the garden.
2. Trip to town, and sorted a bank account.3. Bank took ages, so we had free Caffè Nero and a sausage roll sitting on a bench in the Cathedral Square. DH Googled a monument, so now we know why there is an obelisk celebrating an obscure battle in The Sudan in a church yard in Birmingham!4. Lovely mild weather, but it is not drying the clothes 🙄
5. Spaghetti Bolognaise for tea. Clear plates and seconds for some. 🙂
I did not think I could manage 5 🤣
Have a lovely day 🙂In a world where you can be anything, be kind. (Caroline Flack)

Frith - pleased you are ok
Ampersand hope all goes well with the op.
Suffolksue thinking of you
1. Bala - thought of you with this one. Walking before going into work I saw a blackbird having a bath in a puddle.
2. Had basic life support training. It was very different to normal. Need to wear level 3 PPE to do anything.
3. All patients had cancelled so finished paperwork and took 2 hours short notice annual leave as my back was in pain.
4. Walked round the garden it was nice seeing it in light during the week.
5. Watched Holby and GBBO.14 -

Morning all - glad Frith is OK.
Ampersand - hope all goes well. The Oresund bridge is flipping expensive if you take a caravan over it - in 2011 it cost us £80 each way!!

I wanna be in the room where it happens14 -
Thanks for letting us know about Frith, hope all goes well with the op &.
For yesterday,
Tasty breakfast of scrambled egg on marmite toast.
As always time spent with my equine girlie, very mild morning and she was being a tad lazy so got hot!
Long chat with my bf, always find this time of year hard as it brings back memories of DM’s last illness so it was good to talk things through with my lovely friend.
Filling up bird feeders when all of a sudden our resident sparrow hawk flew past, closely followed by a screeching goldfinch of all things, no idea if the raptor had taken its mate but the tiny bird was clearly angry.
Used up the last leaves of my kitchen Basil plant in a small batch of pesto, frozen into an ice cube tray for ease.

Stood for the silence. Decoration on! Connections are now being lost with Suez and Korea these days. But the warrior was buried 100 years ago today. Though at the cenotaph, it was not until an early morning raid, the the RAF Ensign was placed on the west side. This was done on 1st April 1943!
Had poached egg and mushrooms for brakefest, with orange juice. Now is has mes elevenses, mug of tea and a seal bar from the A1D! Tasty and always a proper drink!
