I was feeling a bit queasy earlier on; I'm not sure why, but happily it has passed.
We decided to wander off down the High Road to get some fresh air, which would buck the pair of us up a little. There is a new branch of Amy's Kitchenware opened on the High Road in the premises that used to house the over-priced, designer, but sub-quality furniture shop that went bust a few months ago. (I tell you, it's all change up here: Demos has been sold and is now a Greek-Cypriot supermarket called Fio's Foodstore - we had hoped it would be Fio's Fuds, but you can't have everything). Anyway, we went into Amy's and walked out with a new mop, a steak frying pan and some freezer bag clips. There are loads of other odds and sods that we liked the look of, but which we eschewed.
A trip then to Waitrose for comestibles, including steak to christen our new pan and then off to the pub for a couple of pints and a natter.
Furtle has just got back from a side-trip to to Marks and Spencer looking guilty.
It occurs to me that somewhere in the multiverse, through the time and space of eternity, my teenaged self is crying out in horror and pity about the fact that I was excited about mops and frying pans...
