April Running Out..

Already nearly the end of April, which meant that our coffee vouchers for the Ladygreen garden centre over the road would expire, so off we went there this morning. Went up the bypass to tesco first and Vin ran in to get a few mushrooms and other bits like his cheap beer! first. He had a voucher for £1 off a six pack of low alcohol beer and when he went in he found that they had reduced it anyway..so he got six cans for 50p. Not bad eh!
He got a few other bits and was out in ten minutes. A lot quicker than I would have been.  We then went back along the bypass to Ince to the garden centre. I wanted a look round first to see if I could see anything for Ann for her birthday and both of us had a good browse round but didn't see anything. Must admit I'm really stumped this year, it was a real pain not getting the DVD of the Call the Midwife, that would have been just right.
We gave up on that and went for our coffee. Quite busy in there, loads of people stuffing their faces at lunchtime! we got our coffees and had taken our own biscuits, the same as the ones they sell for £1 a packet!! but we had bought a box for round about that!
Pretty ordinary weekend and it was quite cold too so Vin lit a fire both evenings, very nice, warms the house up beautifully.  Forgot to say on Friday's blog that we won £50 on the Mail on Sunday crossword this week. This is one where you have to enter by text with the number of letter A's in the crossword. You can't send it by post any more, and we were quite sceptical, but clearly it is genuine.
Tonight we are having:
Pizza with cheese and tomato and mushrooms
Green salad with avocado and baby plum tomatoes
Potato salad for moi and butterbean and rice salad for Vin.
