What a beautiful day, it started out a bit gloomy, but the sun came out and it was quite warm. As it was so nice we popped to West Bridgeford just for a mooch round the charity shops, we ended up taking the old curtains and a bag full of jigsaws we had completed and no longer wanted.
We had a nosy round Oliver Bonas and Waterstones ( I don't buy books anymore except for gifts usually for Pete) I prefer reading my kindle, but I wanted to see if they had the Practical Magic books in a set, can't say I'm surprised that they didn't, I remember the assistant saying when I asked where the horror section was and he said, we don't have one here, no call for it. Not that Alice Hoffman writes horror, but, it strikes me that they don't stock anything in the Bridgeford shop even vaguely witchy or alternative. I did see a leather bound edition of Frankenstein however, but it was in the classics section. And that was more to do with it being a film tie in than anything.
Anyway, we walked up to the bus stop past the library and got the bus home.
In the afternoon we chilled out, I continued reading The Rules of Magic, some books stay with you years after reading them, little things remind you of a line or a scene. These books are in that category, they flesh out the Practical Magic story, giving that history and that base I had no idea it needed.
I had another text from Dr Field at the Cotgrave Hub, saying my iron was still low and that she was sending me another free months prescription of ferrous sulphate. So, not knowing if she's sent it to the pharmacy in the village or the Well online I will give it a day or so and wait for Well to contact me to say they've received a prescription. If not, I'll pop in to the pharmacy in the precinct to see if they have it.
