Tescaw!!!

We succumbed this morning and went to tesco. VT wanted some petrol and to use their air line, so did our weekly shopping there as well.
Still a horrible shop...too busy, and just not nice. I did pick up a few offers though, like Quorn escalopes, etc. Very unexciting shopping though, I just cannot bring myself to get anything out of shopping there, and I begrudge giving them my money.
VT got his petrol, but there was a huge line of cars waiting for the air line...I wonder why that would be?
Then nipped to Waitrose, and parked right outside the front door!! wonder of wonders..pity I only wanted a couple of things. Home in time for our coffee quite early.
Last night we watched the last of the docummentary programmes about the Amish teenagers who had been living in this country for four weeks. Totally fascinating programme. It compared their lives at home with what they experienced here. In this one they were staying with a couple in Cornwall, who were living together but not married yet. The teens couldn't understand that, since it is totally against their religion. they seem to live such a simple life, uncomplicated yet tightly structured so that each person has his or her place in their society. Hard to imagine a life without mobile phones or televisions or any other forms of technology.
They had the opportunity to go sea surfing, which they did, and their simple joy at seeing the sea was a delight to watch. An excellent series, we missed the third one of them since we forgot to record it, maybe catch up on the i-player?
VT is out watering the plants. He says some of them are very dry, even though we have had quite a lot of rain recently. He has just come in to say he has been brushing Bobby. She likes a good brush and will turn over for you, but you have to watch she doesn't turn on you and give you a scratch. She was up round my head this morning at some ungodly hour..wonder why she does that? she stays for a long while, then jumps off and goes and finds her own space.
Tonight we are having:
Gruyere cheese Quorn escalope,
Mixed vegetables,
Baby baked potatoes,
Mushroom sauce.
