Thanks but no thanks. I think I'll pass.
Back from Newtown and of course its raining. I haven't been into the town for at least 18 months. I usually just skirt around the outside on my way to aldi, Morrisons. Boy it's changed a lot. So many stops have closed down. It's ridiculous.

Eyes tested. I'm fine to drive. I only need glasses for reading. But 1 get another pair free.
£130, plus £40 for each pair for an anti glare coating. £210 spent. Easy come, easy go as they say.

A splendid morning as granddaughter had a sleepover last night and I got to take her to school. I got the earlier bus in cas of traffic jams but got to her school in good time so we visited a café for a coffee for me and a fruit juice for granddaughter. Once delivered I walked to our daughters flat to drop something off, did the washing up there so daughter doesn't have to come home to it then set off along the road and down Alum Chine to the Prom. Glorious sunny morning so the jacket came off. Took a few photos along the way as I walked back into Poole. Alum Chine, the Prom then the gap where you have Sandbanks Peninsula and Brownsea Island framing the Purbecks. " Rockets and Rascals " cyclists café is in a lovely Art Deco building in Lilliput then through Whitecliff with our lovely spacious and segregated walking and cycling paths before heading under the Keyhole bridge into the park. Popped into the plant Nursery at the other end of the Park, but no Peace Lillies yet ( a request of Mrs Tkk ). Took the bus the rest of the way home as I need to head back to collect granddaughter in an hour😮
