Despite being desperate for a cosy day at home, Kev had his glaucoma appointment at 1.30pm, so we had no choice but to go out. We started the day off gently, chilled out a bit before going out later than we normally do.
We had coffee at Black Sheep, and then walked down to M&S to get some food in. After a couple of days away and not eating well, fast food and the like, it is now important to reign our diets back in. So we needed lots of fruits and veggies back on the menu.
Before that, we dropped into Waterstones. I wanted to see if they had the new Alice Hoffman book in. Sadly, no. So I'll just get it on kindle, I would anyway, but I do like to see them ' in the flesh' so to speak.
We got the i4 to the savoy cinema area, where the clinic is, and were lucky enough that because we were early Kev got seen almost immediately. Looks like the drops are working and he can have them for the next six months, before they see him again.
We got the bus back into town and caught a Cotgrave, instead of going directly home we got off in Bridgeford, as there was a few bits we still needed we went to Iceland, then up to Waterstones, where they did have a copy of The Witches of Cambridge... As always they were charging the full price for it in hardback, so it is still a kindle edition I'll be buying. But it was nice to see it and part of me still wants a book turret with a window seat and book nook. Maybe in the next life...
We had another coffee in Caffè Nero, before walking back to the bus stop opposite the Co-op.
Once home, Kev started the washing, and once that was underway, he set too and rearranged the wall above the shelves that houses the girls ( you never call them dolls, be warned!) In order to put the Count up, where he belongs next to the wicker bats and his castle...
It looks good, but I'm thinking the bats might have to move as we can't get them how we want them to look, but it might change again.
We had stir fry, Kev had pork, and I had tofu. It's nice to go back to healthier eating. I did notice while we were away. I feel much better when I fuel my body with the right food...
