5 OS pleasures in your day today - part 3

Happycas

Good afternoon.  A bright sunny day after lots of overnight rain.  DS just rang me while driving over Woodhead pass and informs me the reservoir is filling up again!

Highdays Thank you for the kind wishes.  And yes, we had Mischievous Night in Leeds when I was growing up.  It often involved pinching wood from other people's bonfires.  But as they pinched it from yours, everybody ended up with as much as they started with!
We also had parkin pigs.  Like a gingerbread man but a pig and only sold around bonfire night.  Not seen one of those for years.

Met some friends for lunch yesterday.  Lovely to see them and had a good natter but the drive home confirmed that neither of us likes driving in the dark anymore. Think we will try to avoid that in the future.

Was going to make sweet potato soup when I found we only had three small ones left.  Not worth starting for that so they can go in tomorrow's oven veg instead.

DD got me a sort of generic Air Wrap for my birthday.( glad she didn't pay for a real one!) so I've been having a play with that.  I think with a bit of practice I'll be able to master it.  My hair is very fine and tends to just lie flat but we'll see.

Finished Trigger Point so will start Shetland tonight.  But I still miss Jimmy Perez.

Happy Wednesday everyone
