Shopping Around...

We stayed in today..for one thing it was a horrible wet rainy day, plus there was a big pile of ironing to do. So i tackled that while vin vacuumed up Bobby hair which is appearing with monotonous regularity all over the carpets. Big clumps of white hair..it must be moulting season. After that he tackled his car insurance. he has had a variety of quotes and got it down to around three hundred.. anyway he saw an ad in the Daily mail money pages for a company which was offering good rates so he rang them and saved himself fifty pounds. So he is well chuffed. it offers the same products as he is getting now, and this one is cheaper than the AA, SAGA and a few others he has used. Jane rang up at lunchtime..first call in over a week. She said that her phone had broken and she had to return it, so was phoneless for a while. Also she had been ill for a few days too with some bug that has been going the rounds, and had to take a few days off work. Her exams went well but the chemistry one which she usually excels at she got 78 for because she missed out a whole question on the back page she didn't know was there. She is gutted about that, because she got a merit instead of a distinction. i don't think she will do that again!! Tonight we are having: Macaroni Cheese low fat one, Butternut squash and a bit of garlic bread.
