Kettles!!

Went out this morning
to M&S in Aintree. On the way we took the seat back to Crosby and got the money back on that, then we went over to Aintree. Quite a traffic jam on the way, only a little road works but snarled everything up. mental note to avoid that road on the way back, which we did.
I wanted to get a new electric kettle, because we have had our old one for years and it has got really scruffy looking. I had a cheque from YouGov for surveys I had done for £50 so used that.
What an array of kettles in Comet..loads and loads of them of all different types and sizes. A lot of them are dome shaped with small lids no use for filling, and a vast array of colours too. It was quite difficult to choose one, but our eyes were drawn to some glass ones which looked really smart and we ended up getting a Breville energy saving one with a glass body., and a handle which lights up blue when working. What for? No idea but it looks lovely.
Then we went to M&S ffor a coffee..very nice..VT had an Americano I had a latte. Seems like every other woman in there was pregnant today, and one terrible screaming child who definitelky needed shutting up. And he was climbing all over the sofa..I hate that.
Bought a birthday card for Joh in Australia and we spotted a Top Gear DVD of two of their specials so bought him that. VT has checked and says it will work there.
Got some treats from the food section and home for lunch.
Tonight we are having:
Vegetable gratin with mushrooms
Garlic and cheese Kiev and some small potatoes in with the gratin.
