Went to Waitrose this morning for our weekend things.It is only about fifteen minutes away in Formby if that. Car park quiet and we parked right outside even though it was well mid morning. Definitely the holiday season, makes a big difference.
Vin had his list of what we needed and I just go round and pick up what I want! He left me to go off to get a courgette for our pizza on Sunday, and came back to say he had been chatted up by a blonde woman in the vegetable aisle.
Well he's not bad is he!! Pity about the pumpkin..looks like a time bomb!
They had a conversation about the fact that a plastic bag that you put vegetables in costs 1p !! You wouldn't think that but it does!! If you weigh a courgette on its own it will cost 1p less than if you put it in a plastic bag!! Isn't that amazing.. Surprised me anyway.
I do like shopping in Waitrose but...
1. It is very Posh..
2. Everything is a lot dearer.
3. They have an array of exotic cheeses etc., but they don't have my Dairylea light spread I put on my rice cake in the morning!!
4. The shop is so COLD..you practically need a thermal vest in there.
Next door new neighbours are moving in this weekend. He has been in the garden all afternoon erecting a huge garden table..one of those with glass and a metal edge,and six big chairs surrounding it. Nearly fills the garden!
Vin has been varnishing his wooden boards to go under the tank in the loft. He says he is going to do it ion Monday because he needs a full working day to do it. Well it is a tricky job.
Tonight we are having:Cheese and Onion pasties from Waitrose,
Rice puddings from the same..
