A Gusty Day!!

Really blowy and stormy today. The trees at the back of the house in the distance are waving like crazy, with a lot of them being conifers, they are very noticeable.
our cats don't like the wind, it makes them jumpy and they tend to run out and straight back in again.
VT went and let the little ginger girl out this morning, came back in for his breakfast, and when he went to get the papers it was in the front garden miaowing to be let in again.. They were under the impression that it liked to be out all the time, but VT says that it doesn't actually. If the weather is didgy it will hang around waiting to be let in. It is such a shame that it doesn't have a cat flap like ours, but with it being a rented house that is a problem.
We went to Sainsbury's in Crosby for our Monday veggies. I was astounded at the state of the ditches and fields between our village and Crosby. The ditches were full to overflowing, and the fields were like lakes!! Some of them had such deep water that
they had waves on them!! The poor farmers are going to have to do some draining before they work the fields this spring. You can see how flooding happens, especially in the lowlands.
Bought our usual selection of veggies, and a couple of stock items, and home in time for our coffees.
Tonight we are having:
Escalope of some sort
Mixed vegetables with a hollandaise sauce,
Baby baked potatoes.
