May 4th – From Where I Stand
Journey back from Leeds today and prompt of From Where I Stand – well I stood there yesterday. Up late and don’t have time for planned scran and coffee. Just had to jump the train. Thank fuck coffee was available at Picadilly.
Jump train to Wallgate and then bus home. Am totally shattered but edit the pics and get them uploaded.
Glad to see C.

Sunday in, get into Wigan and the police have cordoned off the town centre. No idea what it was about. Plan on coffee from Morrisons and the Costa machine, but no coffee there. Did sort the cream cheese for the next experiment in kidney friendly food. Glimmer 27 is a ghost sign in town.
Easter Sunday, and we’re hanging around. It’s our 3rd wedding anniversary too. Time for Glimmer 20. Catch up on the photos! Cook a roast pork for us for tea. We have a jar in the Lickers but other than that a chilled day.
Glimmer 13 and its another of the open air gallery from People Mek Wigan on the way into work. Sunday early and it seems to be a good shift.
Easter Sunday and Glimmer 11 celebrates the fact I’ve finally cracked the cooking of Onion Bhaji after several years of failed attempts! Delicious too! Cook a pork roast for the day.
Glimmer 6 and it’s back to the past. A wee bimble around the shops and a quick snifter with herself. Sort some metadata and clean the kitchen. C makes the bed.
My Fave Spot – well I suppose the 610 counts as one of them as I experiment with Andy Burnham’s tap on, tap off experiment on the bus. It speeds me to Wigan having been a slug-a-bed after a bad night’s sleep as a result of cold feet.
C still crook, had a rough nights sleep, get up manage to trip the fuses with the toaster, make coffee and that at least offers a moment of rest. Sort out the fuses, and C comes downstairs to tell me off. Nip to the shop for water for C and job’s a good ‘un. Slowly sort the roast after a sarnie for lunch.
Hmm, well this was slightly odd. Head to Layla’s christening and encounter a set of stocks. Apparently thestocks are a reminder of a time when local criminals, including those convicted of murder, were tried at the Hare and Hounds public house, built in the 17th century.
Sunday morning and a lazy start to the day. Coffee at the coffee shop and then a wee shop followed by a visit to the Tom and Gerry for a beer. Back home and it’s out into the jungle at the front to clear dead bits and ivy.
