In Between Days

Tuesday.
We caught the 9.30am bus to the City. Of course that meant an early coffee at Black Sheep, a trip to Boyes to buy hamerrite paint to cover and stop the rust in our jack o lantern cauldron. 
We then went up to TKMAXX in Trinity Square to pick up an arsenic bottle Kev had ordered online, obviously I saw another bottle, smaller and ornate with a rose on it perfect for my tier tray for Valaween, for now, it looks perfect sat next to the Evil Queen. And a Vintage card banner which will go up nearer Halloween. 
We walked to the tram stop and caught the tram to the station. We walked down by the canal having a few stops on the way, drinking water as it was very warm and humid. 
We went to Homesense, and Kev found the figures he was looking for and a couple of mugs to complete the new mug station. I didnt find my item, a picture I want, but no matter, its early in code orange season, so plenty of time. 
We walked over to Sainsbury's to get some food for us and Willow. We bought a trifle as a treat as we have no doubt walked that off. We got an uber back home. I've walked 8,454 steps. That's a lot for me as my daily limit is usually 3,000 to 5,000. Ankle is puffy now, and I know I've done it, but, no pain, no gain ( or in my case, loss) 
I have however, gained a couple of bites on my legs for my trouble. I was in calf length shorts and a t-shirt, but the canal area has a lot of vegetation, and standing as well as moving water. No surprise really. A bit of tea tree oil and aloe vera gel will sort those out.
