Why are They so Cold??

Vin needed petrol today and we needed veggies for the rest of the week so we went off Formby way. He had a voucher for £5 off petrol at a BP Garage so we went to the one on the By-Pass. Paid our (my) £40 and he went to pay at the shop, only to find that they didn't take the vouchers. Vin wasn't best pleased at this, bit much when you have bought the petrol to find they don't accept the voucher, so he has sent a cross email to the firm,
Went to Waitrose because that is the nearest shop, drizzy with rain byut not enough to get wet. Needed veggies for the next few days so got those, and went round the chilled food cabinet to get some stuff. hence today's title! Talk about chilly..cold even..arctic even..it was perishing going round those chilled cabinets. Even Vin was complaining and he doesn't feel the cold, not like I do anyway.Do they have to be quite so cold. I had a top on and a jacket and was still chilled and it stops you from lingering which maybe is a good thing. We were in the end quite glad to come out for a warm, It reminded me of the stores in Florida which were so air-conditioned that they were freezing, and often they would prop the doors open to let some warm air in! We would go round those and then nip outside to warm up in the heat..
The media is full of the Murdochs being interviewed by the MPs today, I do have to say that I cannot raise up any interest in the whole thing really. Doesn't bother me that celebrities and footballers have their phones "hacked", not very nice that the Milly Dowler phone was, but I can't help feeling that they are being used at the mmoment as sort of "Kodak Moments" It is good to be seen apoklogosong to them. Never ever bought the News of The World so won't miss it,no doubt it will rise again as some other paper.
It will all die down in time like the MPs expenses scandal..disappear off into the mists of time.
Last night we had:

Spinach and Ricotta Cannelloni

A lovely little garlic bread.
Absolutely beautiful
