Much nicer Today...

Typical weather really, the minute the weekend finishes the weather clearsup nicely. There is I think a slight touch of Autumn around today, but VT thinks it is too early. Although the trees are still green, I think they are turning a bit, and the nights are definitely drawing in now, and getting chillier too. I have been putting the electric blanket on the past couple of nights, but then I do feel the cold. VT doesn't at all, he thinks I'm soft.
We went out to Waitrose this morning mainly because we got up late. Bobby was climbing all over me at some ungodly hour this morning, and that wakes me up. But, i don't mind, she is such a lovely cat, and really affectionalte in her own way. VT had a cat on him too, I think they are taking us over!!
Waitrose was quite quiet, we only go there because it is fairly near to where we live, and there were one or two things we had run out of. VT particularly likes a type of oatcake that they sell, called Whitty's (I think) smoked oatcakes, and they have a very distinctive flavour. Lovely with cheese. It is an expensive shop, but they do have things that are unusual, and it is a nice place to shop.
Back in time just..for a coffee, and our pizza leftover lunch later.
One of the pleasures of typing these in the afternon, is listening to the radio. All our radios are tuned to radio two, which we both listen to mostly during the day. We like ken Bruce in the morning, and Steve Wright in the afternoon. He generally has some good guests mostly promoting their books, and today was no exception. Carol Vorderman was on because she has just finished her book.. Everything Counts. She was very interesting actually, and not at all big headed or lovey. A nice Northern girl.
Tonight we are having:
Quorn escalope,
Small new potatoes squashed,
Mushroom saucee
Mixed vegetables.
