Brambling said:Thunder storms and heavy rain for a couple of hours early afternoon I'm hoping they didn't reach Wisley and Farway had a good day.Thanks, it was sunshine all day at Wisley, but ran into torrential downpours once past Guildford & on the way home. Dry as bone at home, so guess the storm was very localisedHad lovely day at Wisley, used one of their electric buggies, so not tiring in the heatHot again today, last night was another restless night of being too hot to sleep properlyA top-up Asda order came this morning, just things I would normally have mooched around Morries for this week, but I did foresee me being a bit worn out from Wisley, so got a delivery, using my annual pass.Lunch, toasted crumpets + cheese toppingDinner, Medium fresh chicken delivered, so roast that I think, with salad & boiled new spudsEight out of ten owners who expressed a preference said their cats preferred other peoples gardens1

Lovely clear skies here today
met up with a friend for a bit catch-up; we decided it was too nice to sit inside a cafe so we grabbed a takeaway coffee, picked up some cold meat, cherry toms, cheese slices, grapes and crusty bread at the SM and had a picnic in the park.
Defrosted some of the leftover easter lamb and a portion of gravy for tonight, I'll have that with some new potatoes, peas and ts broccoli.Jan - June Grocery spends = £531.61

Cooler today and very cloudy/overcast until mid afternoon. Popped a load out on the line anyway and it was dry by teatime, turned into quite a nice evening but a bit of a cool breeze. Nipped out to an appointment early evening so did a bit of dinner prep before I went.
Quiche, cold jersey royals, salad and coleslaw for lunch. LO mushroom risotto with the end of the LO fajita chicken stirred in tonight, broccoli on the side for greenery 🙃0 -
Back to the sun shine today.
I had to go into town for a hygienist appointment, I'm sure it goes up in price every visitwhilst I was in town and paying for parking I went into M&S for some milk and veg and was happy to pick up tenderstem broccoli, stringless beans, baby peppers and fresh figs all 75% YS I picked enough to drop into my sister, I'm surprised it was that heavily reduced at 1pm. YS prawns and breaded plaice also fell in the basket 🫣
Prawn roll doe lunch, I AF one of the breaded plaice fillets and add with jersey royals and green veg for dinner

Good afternoon everyone,
The haze cleared yesterday and it turned into a lovely, pleasantly warm day, Today it's been sunny from the outset but the temperature isn't too high, my kind of perfect weather.
Frank is coming here for a few hours this afternoon, so I'm not expecting to get masses done. My sis is coming for dinner tonight. I'm keeping it simple - roast chicken, salad and HM wedges. It's a fairly big chook so I'm expecting LOs. Lunch is LOs/fridge bits.0 -
I am having some grapes and I'm about to make a toasted pitta stuffed with something, maybe houmous and salad. It is much more chilly today and I'm waiting for my dog to be dropped back home.2025 GOALS
