I went down town shopping this morning. It was dull and cloudy, but it did not rain on me.
I went to the toilet by the Cathedral first, then I went and got some photos printed. The lady in the photo shop said, How can it be November already? And I said I don't know!
After that I went to WH Smith to get an art magazine, but they didn't have the one that I wanted, so I came out without anything.
Next I went to the newly refurbished Holland and Barrett. It looks really posh in there now, with a new counter desk and everything. I got 3 of the raspberry flavoured liquorice again, and used my 20% off voucher aswell as my Holland and Barrett club card.
My Mum didn't need anything from the down town Tesco, so then I went straight to the Vodafone shop to ask why I can't vote for people on Strictly using my mobile, and he said it's probably because I've got a spending cap on my phone. He's given me a number to call Talk mobile, and said I should ask them to raise my spending cap, and hopefully that will sort it.
After that I went to Iceland (the shop not the country) and I got some sweet and sour chicken for my Mum, and I got some Chinese Style Chicken curry aswell. They have got a new and improved recipe now after having been contaminated with peanut before. The product recall ones were with the sell by date of 24/4/2026 on it, the one I got today has 28/6/2026 on it. I also managed to get a bag of paella today. My Mum wanted some Tilda egg fried rice, but they didn't have any of that. I got 3 packets of sea bass for me and then I went to pay. I thought I'd worked it out to £18.50 but the lady charged me £17.50.
Then I set off for home, via the toilet by the Cathedral.
When I got home Syd was just bringing Mum back from the house group at Church.
I gave my Mum her change and shopping list. Then I unpacked the groceries and put them away.
What have you lot been getting up to today?
I hope you are all well.
Have a nice day. ![](/Content/images/emotes/niceday.gif)

Actually the Chinese Style Chicken curry was for Syd and he had it last night. I don't eat meat and I don't eat ready meals!
My Mum already two at home so that was OK. We can get some from the big Tesco on Wednesday.
I did enjoy the rest of the day, thank you very much.
I hope you enjoy your day today. ![](/Content/images/emotes/niceday.gif)

@sharonelton well that's understandable. i don't like meat either and i prefer preparing my own meals. it can be difficult at times because i don't have enough "inspiration"
i'm glad you enjoyed your day. my day was fine too ![](/Content/images/emotes/happy.gif)

@aureategloom Yes, I'm like that. But I have recipes that I follow. I wouldn't be able to do it without a recipe!
Thank you very much. I'm glad you had a good day.
Have a great night. ![](/Content/images/emotes/sleep.gif)

Thank you very much. I enjoyed my day yesterday and I'm going to enjoy my day today - but I've just realised I've forgot to put my fish out for my lunch again! I'm going to have to defrost it in the microwave!
Wynne Evans is doing a Rumba to a Shirley Bassey number tonight and it's going to be A-MA-ZING! I can't wait!
