Well, I am sick of driving now. Not to mention packing and unpacking. Bar yesterday, I have done nothing else, daily, for nearly a week. I am giving myself tomorrow off! Anyway, Unit looking a bit more exciting and full of different things. Hopefully some folk will find them of interest. Of course, what sells is militaria. I need to try and use what little knowledge I have, to try and find some more bits.
I stopped at Chris Thomas's greengrocery warehouse again - where we used to always get our fruit and veg from. Tuesday is a better day to go, as that's when fresh stock comes in so there are always some really good £1 boxes of stuff then. Next time I go that way . . .
The lemons were enormous - 3 for £1.30. The peppers 2 for £1. 4 good plums for £1. Raspberries £1. Strawberries £1.50. Apples £1 the bag. I think the very fresh (still had ice on it!) Broccoli (well, Calabrese) was about 70p.
I may just have treated myself too, having earned enough to top up fuel for the week (£40) at the Fair, with £5 left over. Tee magazine, a new one, was £5.99. It will stay in my collection for several years I suspect.
Plus it came with free seeds.
The Tesco shop had a large bag of the cat biscuits I buy, as they were on special offer so £4.25 cheaper than usual. It's cheaper to buy the big bag. The cat sachets (40) were also reduced and on offer, from £12 to £10.75. I would have needed both next week anyway. I got my lunch there too - a meal deal - and a few other things. £48.74. I remembered the black eye pencil - the dark brown one I bought on line goes on far too ginger! I went to Lidl for eye makeup remover pads (dry ones) as they were £1.80 in Tesco. In Lidl I got a double pack for the same money. It pays to shop around.
Now I must quickly water round as it was cool and overcast here first thing, and pots still looked damp. Now they are definitely NOT!
