A chilly, murky and increasingly squelchy day here chez Casa Reynard, not helped by a lazy easterly.
Slept well, and overslept. Whoops!. Whizzed through the morning chores to get back on schedule with things. I also laundered my white coat. I need it on Saturday, as I am judging at a cat show in Bracknell. The rain set in about 1pm and it's still raining.
Lovely luncheon of crusty bloomer with salami, then an apple, a pear and a
Topped up the wood bins, and then hoofed into town to sort out some errands. First to Tesco, as I needed yoghurt, cooking cheddar, a large sweet potato (for an upcoming curry) and some bits for my judge's specials. That was all acquired, along with eight very firm avocadoes, two punnets of grapes and a pack of thermal socks on yellow sticker.
Next stop was Waitrose on the way home. Not that I needed anything from there in particular, but I needed to go to B&M for cat litter and some confectionery to go into the aforementioned specials, and since Waitrose are opposite B&M, I figured I could drop in, given that it was just gone half five, and that's when they do the reductions off the counter. That yielded half a kilo of beef dripping, two large kippers and a lamb breast joint, with all that lot costing me less than a fiver. Result!
Home for a lovely supper of broccoli & stilton soup, then avocado on toast, roast cherry tomatoes, creamed spinach and a fried egg plonked on top of all that.
Sat here watching Arsenal v Chelsea in the Carabao Cup semi final.
