Sunshine and Showers!

Awoke this morning to beautiful sunshine..although it is still cold. We decided to take our money off to Ormskirk, and had a bit of a mooch round there.Bought a few items in M&S mostly salads for the weekend, and dips and things. They do have the more unusual items, like a smoked garlic and onion dip etc.
Had a quick look at the farmers market, but nothing that jumped out at us there. It was very blowy too, they must have been frozen, or very keen.
Had a cup of coffee in our usual cafe which was empty! no-one in there at all.Very unusual, maybe it's the weather putting people off.
We did notice on the way in that the two schools that we pass had no kids in them so goodness knows what the holidays are doing there, and there were a few kids about too.
Then we went to Morrisons for the other items for the weekend.Just the ordinary stuff, trying to remember what we had bought in M&S. Avocados a disappointment in both shops. Marks were £1.99 for two which is a bit dear, but Morrisons were all quite hard. But, if you put an avocado in a bag with a couple of bananas it will ripen more quickly. It seems to work anyway.
We went round quite quickly, and whan we came out it was pouring down,very dark and grey looking, and sleeting!! Really cold, more like Christmas than just past Easter!
Tonight we are having :
Chilli with real eat mince,
Small amount of rice,
Green Beans and carrots.
