Out in the Cold..

Still cold here and the forecast is for more cold weather to come. Lovely bright sunshine though very deceptive.
We went in the Southport direction today for a change, VT had to get some petrol from the Shell garage because he had a £7 cash back on his card and the only one is in Ainsdale. There don't seem to be so many Shell garages around these days, they used to be everywhere, but thinking about it, a lot of garages have closed down or gone.
We went to the Asda store in Southport then, the long way round. Got our weekend things and a few things extra that we usually get from there. They do have good offers actually, one of them was for toiletries for 4 for £3 so we stocked up on Radox bath foam. pesto at £1 a jar and it is a low fat one. VT put coffee things in the car because the coffee shop in Asda is terrible..needs a big update, we wouldn't dream of having coffee there. like the shop though. So when we had done our shopping we went to a quiet part of the car park and had a lovely coffee..saved about a fiver too. Good thinking VT !
Came home just in time to hear the telephone ring..it was the sulky daughter who hasn't rung us up for over a week. the last time she rang I told her off for swearing at her Dad! I told her she hadn't been brought up to do that, and she rang off and hasn't spoken since. What a little madam. Anyway VT was telling me about predictive text this morning, and had put Greetings 2U on his phone to show me, and i said send her a text. So he left that, and put.."Are you still sulking? Mummy says..Love rusty" I knew that would get a result. And it did.
Tonight we are having:
Fishless fingers
Mushy peas for VT and green beans for me,
Chips..200grms
tartare sauce.
