Today's shopping trip down town.

Tweet

I went down town shopping again this morning. My Mum was going to the house group that meets at Church while I was out. She said she'd probably be back before I got back. I went round the top path round Stowe Pool again. When I'd gone past Stowe Pool and I was on the path between two hedges there was a little Border Terrier dog infront of me called Alfie. I was coming up behind him, and his owner said, Alfie, move out of the way of the lady! Alfie stopped and turned sideways right in front of my trolley and looked at his owner as if to say, What are you talking about? I found it extremely funny! He turned and started walking again and when I came up along side him I gave him a little pet. A bit further up in the grasses by the hedge I saw something move. I thought it was a bird, but then I saw it was a little mouse! He was so cute! Then he went into the hedge. I went to the toilet by the Cathedral, then as I was going up the street afterwards I saw this cute little white Westie doggie. I thought, Aw he's cute. I like Westie doggies. They seem really sweet and calm. I'm sure they're no trouble. Then a skateboarder came careering past and the cute little calm Westie doggie went WILD He barked and barked as loud as he could and started pulling on his lead! There goes that notion, I thought! Then I thought I heard this meowing sound but I looked round and I couldn't see a cat anywhere. Then I went and got some more pictures printed. Seeing as it's nearly Bower Day again I got some of last years Bower Day pictures printed! About time. I got 5 of those printed and then 10 as reference photos for my art. After that I went to Holland and Barrett and got some more liquorice. I got three packets of liquorice again, but this time one was for my Mum, one was for Syd and one was for me. I got black liquorice for my Mum and Syd, but I got raspberry flavoured liquorice for me because I actually like the taste of those better I think. Next I went to the down town Tesco and I got some strawberries and some baking paper. Then I went to The Works and I spent £21! I got another acrylic starter kit, £8, a large tube of white acrylic paint, £2, a pad of peel off paper palettes, £3, 3 10' × 12' canvases, £4 and some of the square box canvases, £3. And the £1 was for a bag to put them all in. I chose one that had flowers and BE HAPPY on the side of it. After that I went to Iceland (the shop not the country) and got some Chinese style chicken curry, some sweet and sour chicken and some paella for my Mum and I got 3 packets of sea bass for me. They were £4.50 each, or 3 for £10. Then I went to pay. After I'd paid I went back to the toilet by the Cathedral. There was a notice on the inside door of the cubicle advertising the Cathedral library tours (see photo above) so I took a photo so I could remember the details. Then I went home. When I got home there was no car on the drive so I knew Syd had gone to fetch my Mum from the house group that meets at Church, and there was no-one in. I put Mum's change, Tesco club card and shopping list on the coffee table and I put her liquorice on her sofa. I put Syd's liquorice on the pile of newspapers on the arm of the sofa. I unpacked everything and put them away. I couldn't fit the Chinese style chicken curry and the sweet and sour chicken in the freezer, so I put them in the fridge. Mum might be having them for dinner tonight anyway. Then I had my lunch and watched some telly. They came back not long afterwards and when my Mum saw me there she said I must have flown! What have you lot been getting up to today? I hope you are all well. Have a nice day.
