OK and I’m running late. Grab coffee and sarnies and take photo of a sign I saw the other day that made me laugh out loud, people are so feral. Day went better than the last couple.
Swift pint tonight after work, day went a bit better, still not great. On the plus side the team is fab and that keeps you going.
Tuesday and a horrible day. Calls are awful. Still on the plus side a brew at Kawas.
Movements – first late and I’m flying, value is shite, conversion good. Feeling crap. Long shift.
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.
Afternoon and it’s a trip to the Turkish barbers. Pint and home.
A better day both on sales and value. No Ash and ducked out of the bowling with the rest of the team.
Public transport joy…. Early shift, terrible day. Piss poor value and not many sales.
Monday and I’m despatched to deliver the piss to the GPs. Hazel is due to suffer the final indignity, it only hurts if you get your fingers caught between the bricks. Brief shop in Aldi and then onto the laundrette. My cunning plan of coffee, music and book is interrupted by building work at the garage. Plan B from Planet 57 swings into action and it’s a sausage barm and coffee from the sandwich shop.
Back home and the plan is cook a lasagne for tomorrow, gammon and chips for tonight.
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.
Roast to cook and washing up to sort.
Lazy start to another day off, not up till 9.40’ish. Wander into Wigan with C who is looking for shoes. First port of call is the market where she deems the shoes too frumpy. A brief coffee as I scarf the rest of my tabs. Then into the Grand Arcade. Shoezone (no wide fit), Clarks (too frumpy) fail to provide. In desperation it’s Schuh and we find some Doc Marten’s she loves, Klarna makes them affordable.
Nip into The Raven in search of lunch, first time we’ve been in since it changed hands and was refurbed. Unimpressed we don’t stay. So we wander into Gallimore’s (later learn it is shutting down on Sunday) and have another of their superb steak baguettes.
Home and a cuppa before wandering off to Lidl. Pint in the Lickers on the way back and bake scones and cook pancakes for tea. Wash up and watch old films with herself.
