Morning all, dull and windy start to the day...weather isn't much better either

Didn't have any breakfast this morning so now have a nice cuppa and a circle of cardboard aka rice cake

On my way home from visiting the kiddies I felt peckish so popped into the local chippy..
£3 for a bag and they were bl00dy 'orrible!

Had pretty awful fish & chips from Trencher's in Whitby. Fish overcooked & dry.

Good morning from a grey, wet and cool Suffolk where there's been quite a bit of rain this morning that wasn't on the weather forecast.
Coffee and a custard cream biscuit have been had.
Once I've finally made the effort and got going, this morning will be mostly pottering about the house followed by a trip into town to get some food for this evening and the travel snacks for Wednesday's away day. It's a new destination & venue to me, so I'll also need to go onto Streetview this evening for the train station - pub for lunch - hotel - venue - hotel walking route.

A bit of a challenging week to date with a very poorly moggy, a gas repairer who damaged new plaster whilst fitting replacement heating controls then condemned the gas fire. Plus I got sent to the eye hospital urgently by my optician, with the hospital then turning me away stating they'll triage me at some point in the future.

The art of patience!

Holy island has re-appeared out of the misty murky greyness, the rain has eased off, and it will soon be time to

Second cuppa went down well with a toasted doorstep with lemon curd

According to my diary, the 21st of June was the first day of summer, and the 24th is midsummer's day, so it'll all be over on the 28th then....

Pottering around done, second coffee had, refund received and replacement item ordered. The sun has also made a fleeting appearance so I suppose I'd better do something about getting into town for the food needs.

Just an quick lunch of beetroot, cucumber, tomato, a slice of ham, black olives and a cuppa.
Petrol unsurprisingly went up 3p a litre yesterday or overnight ...

I'm hungry

 

[Pduk]

Going to pop to the local convenience store at the garage, can I get anyone anything?

24th June, Mid Summers Day, the day of Robert the Bruce’s victorious schiltrons at Bannockburn, 1314. Edward II sent homeward.

Strange thing happened round our way this morning..
A couple of neighbours who like to win the 'Who can get their bins out first' competition had put the wrong ones out for tomorrow's collection!
I knew they were wrong as I'm Bin Monitor in our house but checked the Council website just to be 100% certain.
MrsPete popped round to inform them of their error.
Gratitude was expressed 🤗
