Clocks Back!!

And doesn't it make a difference too. it was going dark at about five tonight, and I suppose it's all downhill from here. So far we haven't had a real fire, existing mainly on heaters where we go, but I don't think it will be long now, especially at the weekends. Nice to have the extra hour in bed though this morning.
Yesterday and today have been pretty normal, vin went out to get his last two rolls of loft insulation yesterday, and today he went to get the last of the pipe lagging. he reckons he will have it finished by this week. he's done really well, a new cold water tank, fully plumbed in and installed, and loft insulation over all the loft floor. He is going to put a top up on that which is only £3 a roll and subsidised by the government so that will bring it up to the high specs. Well Done my Vin XX
Did a pile of bedding today, so that will be ironing next week, never mind it's lovely going to bed in thise cotton sheets, all warm and cosy with the blanket on.
Vin hung the quilt cover out this afternoon, but it hasn't dried much too cool today I think. it must have been dreadful years ago doing the laundry and trying to dry things. i can well remember my Mum drying things in front of the fire, and the occasional hot smell when they got a bit close. Monday was wash day in ur house though not Sunday..that was for church and Sunday dinner. how things have changed in our house.
trying to make the most of the new computer. I keep doing things wrong, but Vin is very patient, and comes and explains things or puts them right. Haven't quite got the hang of putting photos on the blog yet though.

It worked!! by the looks of it. yesterday I was playing around but it wasn't working. Hooray, we are getting there.
Tonight we are ahving:
pizza with our tomato sauce. ( Need to make a batch of this next week)
Portobello mushrooms, pineapple, courgette, and pepper for Vin, not me I hate them!
Potato and egg salad with avocado pear
Potato salad for moi and sweet chilli noodle salad for Vin
