Starts with T, the tiny toes of Elsie! First of two days off. Start the day fetching chicken and salad from the chicken shop. Grab breakfast at Hels Kitchen. Fetch gloss paint and a brush. Back home and paint the window sills and steps.
Bloods in Wigan and I’m knackered and so tired I’m On The Ground. Nip into Kawa’s, bump into Fin then realise I don’t have the blood forms. Back on to the bus and it’s a dash back to the Thomas Linacre. They struggle to find blood. Meet C off the bus and a swift pint in the Lickers.
Book, grab Ripley Bogle off the shelf, some old Russian glass and the Olympus. Feeling knackered.
Something Soft well it was bound to be Elsie. GPs this morning where my blood refuses to flow.
Day off and I sleep, sort all of the washing up and sort the cat’s litter trays. Traditional Friday pint with C at the lickers. Glimmer 25 and it’s Elsie starring in her cat tunnel.
Friday and I’m knackered, a pleasant day with C. Just chilling. Glimmer 18 done on the heap of lost causes,
Day off and Glimmer 9 from yesterday, the bike shed.
First day off and Glimmer 4. Chase up to to the laundrette and sit there for a while reading, listening to tunes and generally chilling. Back home, nip out for a bit to get some shopping and a subway. Grab a bit of a kip and then meet C off the bus. Nip to the lickers and wait on the bonus slip fury. Mine is positive so that’s cool. Geoff comes in we buy him a drink. Nip to the bank for C. Home and a quick curry for R, S and myself and a chicken salad for herself.
A playful day off. First up a wee lie in, then a trip to Wigan to fetch the bike and pop the council tax dosh into the bank. Clearly the Nationwide has only recently reopened because I score a free tote bag. Turns out useful because I’ve not dressed for the cycle and it goes onto the back rack with the lock in it. Prior to that though breakfast at the Station Cafe.
