Shopping

Went into Ormskirk this morning to get a few things and have a look around. We really went for some Cat Chicken, as we felt guilty not giving them any yesterday. We give them a 1/2 a chicken breast every day as a treat, usually when we are having our lunch. They seem to come in then and Bobby sits at our feet waiting.
We had a look around the town centre, and went into our usual haunts. VT noticed that Julian Graves were having a 1/2 price sale, so he went in and got some things then I went back later and got some more. Good bargains.
Didn't buy any clothes today, didn't see anything I liked or wanted, so saved my money. Had a nice cup of coffee, got some stuff at Morrisons and came home for lunch.
The afternoons are very different at present since there is no Countdown. That was really a part of our routine, sit down at 5ish, have a lovely cup of proper coffee and a cake and Countdown. But there seems to be a problem. We know Des O'Connor is leaving, and then it has been announced that Carol Vorderman is leaving too after 26 years. Now that's a shame. Big Mistake Channel 4!! So we have been watching Heir Hunters which is quite interesting but not as good as Countdown.
I hope they sort it out soon.
Tonight we are having:
Escallopes with Wensleydale cheese and blueberries,
Little baked potatoes, or maybe sauteed,
Tenderstem Broccolli.with toasted pine nuts.
Mushrooms.
