It's a Quiet Life..

This retirement malarkey! We didn't want to go out today so we didn't. maybe tomorrow. VT got up and got our usual cup of coffee this morning then he started reading his book. At present he is reading "The Diary of Anne frank". We bought it the last time we went to Cheshire oaks, only 2 or 3.99 can't remember which. Lovely little book with a reddish cover, and a small book to hold. he keeps reading me bits from it, the girl certainly knew how to write, and her vocabulary was brilliant. Very smart girl, with a great sense of humour. there was an excellent series on BBC a while ago, and the girl who played her was a very good likeness. Very good casting too.
VT mended the socket this morning under the sink. The plug was very burnt and was looking quite dangerous to me. He turned the electricity off and did that fine. He is good at repairing things, very good with his hands. It's a real shame he didn't have a better education he could have been a professional something. Jane's education would have suited him down to the ground. Haven't heard from her for a few days, she rang up the other night to say that she had bought something good in tesco...Marmite Cashew nuts!!! Wouldn't mind trying those, but nuts not good for moi.Potassium and salt..
Tonight we are having:
Lamb grills (Quorn)
Mashed potatoes with leeks,
Mushroom gravy,
Cabbage and leek..green beans maybe.
I was going to do the almost cheeseless pasta casserole, but forgot to buy the greek yogurt so we will have that tomorrow.
