Dusty Vinfield!

Vin is vacuuming today, he says he is doing the Spring Cleaning ready for Christmas!! Funny thing is, in my magazines this morning there was a Christmas Catalogue! and it isn't even the end of May yet. The problem in our house is the cats, we only have two but they shed an awful lot of hair, we could do with one of thoses cat and dog vacuums that are advertised, maybe that would get them up. Vin reckons that the vacuum cleaner bag is full of cat hairs, and you can recycle it by just taking them out in one go!! I have sorted some of my books oyut, I seem to hae accumulated a lot of books again, so need to get them into a bag for the charity shops, of which there are many round here. Vin was saying yesterday that in one charity shop in Ormskirk that the chap was talking about the fact that less goods are coming into them these days. I expect it is the recession, suppose people are keeping things longer and not getting rid of things the way they did. I would have thought that books were a constant though, if you are reading a popular type of book, you don't tend to keep them for long. i don't generally read a book more than once, unless it is a classic . A thriller or a crime novel I read then give to the charity shop. It is a way of donating then. Quite warm today with the sun shining, and Vin has his shorts on..great legs! Tonight we are having: Lamb grills with a madeira wine gravy Baby boiled new potatoes green vegetable medely.
