for fabulously frugal food
Spent some of my M&S vouchers today. I get them from using a credit card and use them for lovely M&S food. Today I got a pack of salmon fillets and another bag of sea bass fillets, a pack of large smoky flavoured prawns, a big oblong pizza, some mixed...
Oh joy and jubilation -I have internet back. I can't tell you how cut off I have felt. It would have tiny times of on-ness, a few seconds, during which it would download emails and messages, which I could see on the iPad, but then it would refuse to let me answer...
Yet another grey and wet start to today. DH had the bright idea of setting off to Westward Ho! an hour before it was forecast to clear up and hope that we could catch the best of the day. And that's exactly what we did! Westward Ho! is a real old fashioned seaside...
Weatherwise, today has been much like yesterday - overcast and grey, but not much actual rain. So when we were ready, we decided to have a look at Bideford. It has a feel much like the Old Town in Hastings, not too far from where I live. The smell at Bideford has that...
Although overcast and grey here today, there was virtually no rain, so we headed on out and went to nearby South Molton for a mosey. There was a market on there today, which is why we decided to go there rather then somewhere else. There was a livestock auction,...
Well, I am now a Mrs, and I’m going to have to think up another two letter acronym for my new husband. Ooh, that does seem strange writing that. The last post seems to have been re-set to Draft, goodness knows why, so I’ve republished it. It’s even kept the original...
I’m getting married in the morning! Ding dong! The bells are gonna chime. Pull out the stopper! Let’s have a whopper! But get me to the church on time! Yes, the third wedding of my summer has arrived and I’m getting married tomorrow to Mike, the man I have been with,...

Phew, busy day today. I decided the bedroom was well overdue a thorough clean. Vacuumed all inside the sliding door wardrobe. My goodness, where on earth does all that crud and dust come from. I keep my numerous shoes in boxes in an effort to keep them dust free and...
Well Wimbledon is finished for another year. I have seen some exciting tennis and been on the edge of my seat lots of times. I love this tournament and watch as much of it as I can. It's strange tho, I don't watch tennis at any other time, it's just Wimbledon that...
4pm yesterday, just as I was thinking, phew, it's blimmin' hot, what on earth can we have to eat, don't want to cook, etc, when, bang, off went the power. After a couple of hours and it still hadn't come back on, I took myself off to Sainsbugs to get some salady bits...
Took myself off for a 4 mile walk this morning. Just me, myself and I. I fancied some time on my own, just walking, so off I went. It was lovely. A good day for walking, sunny and warm, not too hot. It was the same one I did with DP a few weeks ago. Saw some lovely...
