What are you all up to

Hope you get a nice trim this Friday TDA !  Just make sure you have a warm wrap with you ~~ I didn't and have been sh-sh-shivering ever since, so much so that I was told off in M & S this morning because the check-out staff could not get the reader to check the Christmas Present Gift Cards 'til I laid them down   Still everything was OK- No leaks or dribbles anywhere 

Thanks for your comments, all appreciated.The Peak District is second home to us as it was where we spent most weekends when working. Walked everywhere from Kinder Scout down to Osmaston in the south. We used to do a walk that by passed the Tram Museum or just by it and walk on over to Dethick.

Anyway MiL was a trooper today. On her feet walking for over 3 and a half hours all told, with a cuppa and lunch in between but not bad for someone of her age. She's enjoying the change of scenery ( and also falling asleep at 9 pm!).

It's really surprising what tickles the satisfied bone these days. Hair cuts, charity shops, a scone from a takeaway coffee shop. Maybe we've never fully appreciated the ordinary things in life enough.

 

I agree WN. I dont think we have really appreciated the ordinary things in life enough in the past. Hopefully we wont forget to appreciate them more in the future. These past 2 weeks I have so enjoyed a haircut, coffee in the park with a friend, lunch in a friend's garden, a visit to a charity shop and tea and cake in our daughter's garden to celebrate her birthday. I dont wish for any more.

Sorry, just found this post, WN. As you might expect we were out for most of the day and they stopped racing at 5:00 so no real problem.

We too have stayed there in the past. Tried getting in last year but it was fully booked when we planned to visit. Hopefully we'll get there again when things get back to something like normal.

Can’t agree enough with what you say WN and Millie. Quite simple everyday things have provided us with some good moments this year, things that in other times we would very much take for granted. First post lockdown takeaway fish and chips, discovering all sorts of nice local walks, baking lots of homemade bread, learning how to make houmous, planning a home party for Mum’s birthday, watching all the different wildlife in our garden and home area, lots of DIY tasks, etc.....

Really enjoyed our first few days away though, thankfully everything went really well, looking forward to our next carefully planned break now.😁

What a lovely start to the day clear blue sky ,although one needs to keep out of the cold wind ,

Washing done and now out on whirly

Is that different than paying at the pump? I tend always to use supermarket fuel stations and tend now (certainly since COVID) to use the pay at pump option as its quicker than having to queue in the shop.

Esso station? no idea why.  and we use that station with our cc fuel card, may have a problem with  incomers
