Morning Chats..

Every morning VT brings us up a cup of coffee to start the day..with a cow biscuit. Sometimes we have a reasonable cup, sometimes a tiny cup, it depends on the time we wake up really. Nevertheless it is a welcome time of the day. We usually have a nice little chat about things. VT always has something to say..either about something he has read, or seen on the news or something we have been watching. I enjoy this time of the day, it is calm and relaxing and usually the cats are around so they make you feel wanted. Little Rusty plonks herself on his chest and just sits there sphinx like till he gets up for a shave.
Saturday and Sunday were quite normal, VT went out to get a few things, but Sunday dawned rainy so didn't go anywhere. He usually goes over to Maghull where they have a Farmers Market on the first Sunday of the month, but it was so manky yesterday he didn't bother. It is a Farmers Market that started out really well with quite a number of stalls, but one by one they have dropped out, and now there are only a few. I don't know why they keep it going really, it would be better in Formby or Crosby.
The crosswords done on Sunday weren't too bad with only a couple to look up on the computer.
We had been wondering why we haven't seen our next door neighbour recently, it turns out that he has been in Hospital with a kidney infection, so that explains why. We live in a block of terraced houses but it is surprising how you miss things going on. I have lived here nearly all my life, and the old days of people popping in and out of each others homes are long gone. People are a lot more private these days.
Went to Sainsburys this morning to get our veggies, and on the way back VT said shall we go and get our free coffees? So we made a bit of a detour, and went to the Ince garden centre. The trees there are a lovely Autumn colour and with the sun shinibng through them they looked lovely. Not as nice as these though


Saturday we had:
A Dine in for two meal from M&S
Mushroom Risotto..with a tiny bit of garlic bread and some asparagus,
Sunday we had:
pizza which is our normal
Salads with avocado and egg
Tonight we are having:
Broccoli and Tomato Quiche
The pudding we didn't have from Saturday and a spot of Alpro cream.
