Thursday Doings!

 Nearly the end of the week again! Vin went off to Tesco yesterday as normal, seems to be the quietest day for going there, and now the schools are back it makes a difference. At the beginning of the week the lockdown rules eased a bit with non essential shops being opened and bars and pubs open if they can serve outside. Although what pleasure there is in sitting outside when it is feezing cold with a cold pint of beer is beyondf me!

Yesterday Vin had a successful ink hunt, he has been looking for some ink for his fountain pen for ages and it is unbelievably difficult to find anywhere that sells it. If you go on Amazon etc., you have the problem of the p&p to add on which makes it very expensive. Anyway he found a stationers in Formby so went there to get some after ringing up first to check it had some. He came back with a nice bottle of Quink ink in a fetching shade of blue which he wanted. Nice to find a small shop and local too which sells exactly what you want. Pity is they a fast disappearing these days. People back on the High Streets again judging by yesterday's news, Queues round shops like Primark and round the blocks too. Madness!

Jessie is spending her weeks as normal, doing what she always does. She does however, wake him up very early in the morning for her feeding, she has a new way now, by stroking the side of his cheek till he moves. He says sometimes he says "go away" but she returns a minute later to do the same thing. Consequently he gets up, feed her and gets a half mug of tea and comes back to bed. Then falls asleep again and we don't wake up till later!Ah well she is happy!


He wakes up to find this little face staring at him. Who can resist!
