VT wanted to get a few plants for the hanging basket at the front of the house for the winter, so we decided to take our free coffee vouchers and go to Dobbies, It was clear but very blowy when we got there and we had a good look round first. I wanted to look at the Christmas things to see if there was anything for my parcels, and VT went out to look at the plants. Then we had our coffees,very nice too. We cheat a bit and take our own biscuits so even better!!
He then went to get his plants and i bought the things i wanted,a pair of Christmassy oven gloves and tea towels and a little book all about christmas customs. The thing that we really wanted was a pack of their mint crisps which are lovely and they didn't have any....typical!
Post arrived well after lunch today..as is the norm these days. terrible service at the moment.Mostly wet as well. One letter we got was posted on the 29th october from quite local, and a letter from John and Ann in Australia posted on the 1st November !!!! What is all that about? Lovely long letter with some beautiful phhotographs, and a tale about a spider. VT started tickling my leg..horrible man. I don't think I could holiday there actually, i could barely hold the page the tale was written on!! of course VT had to look the thing up on his netbook..it is called a Huntsman..don't thi k I shall be looking that up either!!Uuuugh!!!!
Just as I was typing this little Rusty brushed up against my legs..she is at it now too..VT probably sent her up!
Tonight we are having:
Pasta 4oz
Roasted butternut squash
Tomato and mascarpone sauce
A bit of garlic bread.
