Morning light

May 17 – Morning Light

Morning lightSo away into Wigan in the morning light so C can cancel her standing order to sort an issue. She’s dead chuffed.  We bump into Stue on the way back to the bus station.  We go in with surgical precision, into Nationwide and back to Ashton having found the Little Kitchen has closed.  Brekkie at the Tom and Gerry’s it is.  Then a light bit of shopping in which we find a clock that ticks and chimes (Muggins here pays for the bugger!)

On the ground

May 16th – On the ground

On the groundBloods 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.

SnackTrip to the ‘pool today.  Start of with a Snack, sausage sarnie.  Then on to The Walker Art Gallery.  Bit of nice Paul Nash, bit of Johnny Vegas.  Thoroughly enjoyed it.  They’re advertising a Holly Johnson exhibition down at The Museum of Liverpool Life.

C not happy on the walk, so we hit The White Star for a beer.  Gives C a chance to rest up.  She walks the rest of the way.  Exhibition is interesting but a bit light.
