  • Sunny and breezy here today so another two loads of washing dry on the line. That’s me caught up, I had bedding and towels from before I went away on top of holiday washing. I’ve also ironed what feels like everything I own 😂

    Not much else today, it was a very long week back at work.

    Mezze for lunch which included some of the aubergine in tomato sauce from Greek week 😋. Prawn, broccoli and baby corn Thai red curry with noodles tonight.

    Dry & breezy, supposed to clear up later, hope so, then I can get views of the Blood Moon eclipse this evening.

    Finalised my W'rose shopping, opted for the cheaper 4-hour window delivery, only £2, but they are supposed to let me know the hour slot come the day, once the van's route has been worked out.

    Lunch, last of the cheese & tom rolls
    Dinner, defrosting a YS Pukka veggie pie, maybe have with HM mash or maybe chips, TBD later

    I had a garlic bread and a pizza at a nice restaurant in Poole harbour last night. The pizza was so huge that we couldn't finish it all. That is a lovely area too. My friend said we should move to Dorset and I'm quite tempted.  :D

    There was a thunderstorm here this morning, but it has got a lot warmer since then.

    Sky is a bit grey and overcast so probably wont see the eclipse here but the moon is obviously affecting the tides; there’s a really choppy sea with huge waves racing to shore.

    That's how I work my sainburys order Farway, choosing the 11.00-3.00 saver slot and I get a text/email with an hour slot on the day of delivery - so far it’s usually been between 12.00 & 13.00.

    Houmous, crusty bread and veg sticks for lunch.

    I’m defrosting some prawns for tonight but haven’t quite decided whether to do a baked potato & salad or a fried rice - decisions decisions
