Brambling

Great niece born early hours of the morning, her mum had a really bad pregnancy and they were worried that it wasn't going to make 28 weeks but she was born on her due date a healthy 7.7lbs and all is well

Enjoying my belated weekend, 2 days off together after working a 3 day weekend.

looking forward to my holiday 🤞🏻 We all pass the Covid test on the day.

The garden is looking beautiful with lots of flowers and shrubs in bloom .

Managed to raise a good amount of money for the Ukraine appeal in work this last week.

I have an empty washing basket! Although it was on the line I had to run out for it as it was raining , just debating wether to hang out again as it’s much brighter now.

Everything is ready for tea as I made it yesterday and just needs warming.

Hi Chums, I'm a happy old dear today 

1. Just booked my second booster shot for 20th of April

2. I've totalled  my three month food budget Jan -March this morning and out of £180.00 I had £68.42 surplus which has been tucked away

3. On the way back from the Drs nipped into Tesco Metro, and spotted four large pork steaks reduced to £2.10 so nabbed them and when I got home dipped in flour ,egg and sage & onion dried stuffing mix portioned up and into the freezer. Four meals there at the meat part at 55p a pop so four tasty meals  

4. Seen my DGS Henry as he is going back to Uni later today

so all's cheerful in my world

I've not thought of doing the coating before freezing I may try next time i buy some so thank JackieO.  I'm wondering about flattening them out as well so to cook quicker like a schnitzel?

Day out at local art gallery-free entry although they do ask for a donation. We used our bus passes to get there. Just missed a bus on the way back but filled the time before the next one by visiting supermarket and got several yellow stickered items.
