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.
Last of the lates and don’t think the value is going too well, sales are though. Glimmer 3 and it’s tempus fugit and all that jazz.
Nature’s beauty, bit of a rambling concept this one the constant generation and degeneration of nature, yadda yadda yadda! Lazy day, lie in, gentle amble via the chicken shop as we begin the Kidney friendly diet for C. Plan is some sort of Waldorf Salad for tonight. This is followed by a visit to The Coffee Shop.
In search of something shiny I revisit the Lucky Cat at the Wallgate Chippy. Last of the earlies before a couple of days off. Team have been having fun whilst getting the job done. A better day but not ideal. Last call just before I leave means it’s tight for the train. I jump a bus home.
From Below leads me to the bridge at the station. It’s a place I’ve photographed sporadically because I love the industrial nature and lines it offers.
Saturday and another day off. Lie in it’s nice! Then off to get Greg the bear shrink wrapped. We go via the ATM and follow the shrink wrapping with a coffee. Nip back home and drop the bear off. Meet C at Lidl and shop. Back home for a bacon sarnie.
Day off and Elsie goes to the Vets for her jabs. Given a lift by Steven and Ryan. Cat behaves well, jabs go well. Struggle with tiredness, Elsie and I repair to bed.
Day one off after a hard week and I’m knackered. Up late, brekkie at the Tom and Gerry (Miner’s Benedict). Then away to the Chemist’s to fetch the meds for the pair of us.
Curry night, a Punjabi Tomato Curry with Chicken, rice and Naan. Slow cook and caramalise some onions. Also bake some fruit scones. Wee shop with C earlier and swift pint. Pump up the bike tyres in anticipation of tomorrow’s cycle to work.
