Another decent night's
sleep. "Daddies Little Angel TM"
arrived rather early, and we got the dogs organised and set off on
our morning's constitutional. Today we went into town. First of all
to Wilkos for sun cream and the makings of beer. And then to Lidls
where I had a shock. For those of my loyal readers who don’t know
the shop, I have heard it said (somewhat unfairly) that Lidls
keeps the riff-raff out of the pound-shops. Imagine my surprise when
I saw what looked just like the wife of "The Man With No
Alias" (patent pending) in there doing the weekly
shopping. I looked twice, and a third time. On very close scrutiny I
realised it wasn’t her at all, but the resemblance was uncanny.
We continued our walk
into the park where we met loads of people. Orangehead was there with
her chunky little friend and the rest of her posse. Steve cycled past
and we chatted for a bit. And we met up with one of "Daddies
Little Angel TM"’s school friends (from
the days when she used to show up at school).
And so home. I had an
early lunch, and then continued packing the car. I scrubbed the table
covers and got them on the line to dry, then went through the food
boxes. The rice and pasta had been moused over the winter. Perhaps
from now on we won’t store food in the shed.
And with as much packed
as I could pack I got the makings of the next load of beer in to
brew, and then wasted much of the rest of the day playing Candy Crush
Saga.
I wish we could go
camping sooner...
