    Another planned spend day today.

    Met my friend for coffee – was lovely to have a gossip and catch up.

    Breakfast was eggs royale, oatcakes, salmon and poached eggs.  Dinner tonight is fish cooked at home and DH will pop out to get some chips from the chippy to go with it.  As we skipped lunch we will probably have a roll and make chip butties on the side J

    Have started watching Hope Street on the iplayer.  Watched two episodes and really enjoying it so far.  Some different story lines.

    This afternoon had a bit of a sort out in the kitchen – found the airfryer which was a terrible buy as we only used it a couple of times.  I’ve put it on our local Facebook group for £10.  Hopefully it will sell, if not I will take it to the charity shop.

  • Sounds like another good day mrs p with the coffee and fish and chips 😼

    I had an air fryer last year which was initially great . 2 things to mention there : first was the food getting stuck and paint discolouring . Secondly mine flashed and stopped working when putting container back in so to speak .
    I'm not sure if charity shops accept electrical goods , so may be best to check ..

    Washing done and some housework.  Ventured outside and did a small bit of gardening – and I mean a small bit as it was windy and freezing cold!

    Breakfast Muffin, lunch soup and dinner home made fish pie.

    Had a fry up for breakfast.  Dinner later will be turkey crown and all the trimmings.  When I went to Sainsbogs after Christmas they had loads of fresh turkey crowns at about a third of the price – I bought one and put it in the freezer. 

    Horrible, windy and rainy here so a film afternoon!

    Spend today as needed some basics.  I did go a bit mad with the flavoured hot cross buns they sell in Sainsburys. 

    Breakfast was porridge, lunch soup and muffin and tea tonight is home made pizza with some of the leftover turkey.
