Better Today...


Thankfully, little Rusty is a changed cat today, much brighter and perkier and not running in and out today. So we seem to have caught it early thank goodness. Eee we do suffer us poor women, she must have wondered what on earth was wrong, so it was a good job we took her.
Today we went over to Dobbies mainly because we didn't want to do the Ormskirk journey again, and Vin wanted to get some more hardwood logs. They have oproved to be the hit of this winter, burn beautifully and don't spit.A great find.
We had a good look round, they have bits of Christmas stuff but it is very tacky stuff and not what we go for. Vin spotted some garders soap that he fancied and i had a look round the food hall but no bargains there. However Vin did spot a box of crackers for cheese that were half price so got those for the weekend. Had our free coffees, Vin had a caramel latte today and I had an Americano. Very very quiet in there today, the cafe area was nearly empty and the tea room section where they have comfortable sofas and chairs was empty. Total waste of space that is. I think they should loet people who are just having a coffee go in there, at least it would make it look busier.
Came home via the terrible Tesco's which is on our way home. I wanted a loaf and a couple of other bits so we got them and home for lunch.
very mild today, not as cold as yesterday, but they are predicting snow for the end of the week. Noticed loads of snow shovels in Dobbies, they are going to be stuck with them this year., and it looks like our show grippers aren't going to be used!.
Tonight we are having:
Pasta Bake with butternut squash and mushrooms.
A bit of garlic bread.
