Best Of

More confusion this morning as a text I received from Boots saying I had a prescription ready for collection turned out to be false but I only found out after making the trip into town to pick them up. They really are making a Pigs Ear out of this.

Matters turned for the better this afternoon as we met up my cousin and her husband for a meal in rural Cheshire. We haven't seen each other for about 4 months so had plenty to catch up on, with plenty of laughs along the way. The meal was great, an Indian curry cooked by an Indian chef in an English pub. I was also touched by the fact that our guests paid for the meal as a belated birthday present for reaching 70 last month.

@Francis - try a Broadside if you get the chance (Adnams).

@milliehull 🤣🤣

I had a go on just one thing.... the 'Deal on No Deal' machine. I won 4 tickets!! To give you some idea.... for 100 tickets you get one tiny (round, sugar) lollipop on a stick. So I guess 4 tickets is the equivalent of me being in the 1p club!! 🤣🤣

@Takethedogalong and @milliehull thank you for the recommendations willl look them up we did have a pint Millie at the bar at the end of the pier yesterday sat outside looking out to sea lovely view we are planning on another visit there later in the week.
@wherenext took your advice today and got a bottle of ghost ship very nice had that in the van tonight although did notice that they have it on draught at the on site bar so will get another one tomorrow if we are in there

@Wherenext I’m sure I will get the chance I will make sure of it hehe

Excellent day here today nice weather so we took a trip to Caister and visited the classic motoring museum there what a wonderful place we were there around 4 hours they have a great selection of cars and motorbikes of all ages from the 1890s right up until the 2000s even had a Mercedes the same as mine lovely example I got chatting to one of the volunteers there who was very helpful and knowledgable about the cars. Admission price also gets you into the grounds of the castle and can walk up the stairs to the tower but we just had a quick run round as we had spent most of the time looking at the cars well I did SWMBO had a quick look then took herself off to look at their collection of porcelain. Came back to the van and cooked on the Cadac still sitting out now enjoying the sun with a pint of Guinness. Think we are going to head down to the club house soon for a drink

Belated birthday wishes @DEBSC - sounds like you had a nice day. Pleased to hear that your foot problem is a bit better @Bakers2 . Lovely photos David @DSB and @nelliethehooker. I'm starting to get itchy feel and feeling a little bit frustrated because we aren't going away this month. Still, been waiting long enough for the hospital appointment, so I will be pleased to get that out of the way and hopefully, have some answers as to what's wrong.

Not away again until 14 August which seems ages away😢 - however - as posted elsewhere, I have managed to secure a serviced pitch at Sandringham for Christmas😀. Just need to fill in the bits in between!
