I'm lost!
Mrs WN has taken mother out in her jalopy. The house is quiet, there are no jobs to be done (well none that I can find, although I might not have tried very hard). The caravan is packed for our week away from tomorrow apart from those overnight things and I'm forbidden from getting into the attic to sort it out until Easter.
Oh well, might just have to have another coffee.

Pointless posting on the 'other thread' so I will say hello to everyone on here
Another lovely day today bit more of a breeze though which was nice. Managed to do 23 lengths of the pool today over 2 sessions again we've now caught up on our sleep and feeling nice and relaxed.
Off to the big market tomorrow, there are markets going on all the time here but the biggest one is at Teguise on a Sunday. I rarely buy anything but I do enjoy a mooch around.
Off out for a meal tonight, stayed in and cooked last night.
Have a good weekend all.

It would be pointless to disagree TG as I feel the same.π My day here started with a bit of a shock as I got the boiler settings wrong and ended up having a very cool shower. The day did improve, despite miles of driving and about a 9 mile walk we finally saw the Snowy Owl π¦ albeitvery distant. ππ
Strange that WN whenever Mrs One goes out I look for jobs but end up drinking coffee and watching B&W movies π₯

Pointless waiting for mothers day for MIL as we're off in the van tomorrow so opened some bubbly tonight and cooked her favourite meal. She's already had a pressie and she found out late this afternoon that she won a raffle from the garden centre MrsWN took her to this morning. Loads of crafting goodies no less.She filched the flowers given to MrsWN by the car saleswoman yesterday, so all in all she's not gone short and we can disappear with a clear conscience. So win/win all round.

We like that market up in Teguise, TG - whenever we'very been in Lanzarote we've always driven up there on a Sunday. Some good leather items and usually a couple of fabulous cheese sellers. It's 3 or 4 years ago now since we were last there, but we stayed for about an hour listening to one of the best buskers I've ever hear belting out loads of Neil Young songs. Best 5 euros I've spent on the island!

Now Brian's feeling his age, Moulesy -- the Neil Young he recalls only sang when he scored yet another goal for Manchester City !
Delighted to hear you're taking your exercise even on holiday TammyG but take care in them thar market place thingies 'cos you just might end up buying some of them thar leather bound cheeses Moulesy mentioned

Oooh! Cool shower bet that was a shock to the system glad you saw the snowy owl.
Have a good trip WN.
Glad to hear (on the other thread) you are drying out moulesy, as you say good job you go down early, what a mess you would have had. In 1993 my sister got flooded out of her house when the River Tay burst its banks. What a mess after the water went down, took them 5 months before they got back in.

Glad your getting sorted M.
Heard a Twany owl calling so went outside the van and a second chimed in. Suddenly I caught sight of a shadow moving towards me, it was a barn owl bathed in the site lights, seemed to be disoriented as he nearly hit our van before swerving away screeching. Really ethereal experienceπ¦
