Up and ready to venture to Riverside retail park to do a Home Bargains run. It was cold and I don't just mean chilly, I mean cold as in bitter. It was like going back two months. So not a day to be venturing too far from the shops.
We got nearly all we wanted (a couple of things we couldn't find!) And a couple of things we didn't plan but they came home with us.
We obviously needed a toaster, it had to be black. Got that, found a replacement hanging basket, which we both liked, filled with faux flowers. As both of us are flower killers. Less maintenance and it brightens up the wall of ivy.
I found another candle we have one burning in the bathroom all the time, we discovered you get more from a candle if its lit constantly. The bathroom is the safest area to do this and it keeps that area smelling sweet if you close the door. We are averaging three days to a large jar candle, so the ones in HB and Aldi are priced perfectly for that, nothing above £4. More expensive ones go in the unliving room and bedroom under the candle warmer.
We got some undersink baskets and once home we sat and went through all we had under there and threw some stuff out. Tidy now and more accessible for both of us, and I wont be tempted to duplicate cleaning products as I can see at a glance what I have.
Typically late afternoon brightened and warmed up. Kev took what washing we still had to do, and I hung some hand wash items outside to dry.
Another productive day.
