My Fave TreatDay off and Elsie goes to the Vets for her jabs.  Given a lift by Steven and Ryan.  Cat behaves well, jabs go well.  Struggle with tiredness, Elsie and I repair to bed.

Beer avec Carol in The Lickers, snack that buggers me up for the curry I cook later.

NDay off and it’s been a busy day. Off to Wigan to fetch the bike. Get off and nip into Go Outdoors… third set of handgrips and new daysack, (zips on the last are pissing about so bin beckons). Coffee at Kawa’s. Train, fetch meds for Elsie and then to Aldi. Get stuff for tonight’s tea. Discover it’s only C and myself. Cook us a bolognese. Then off for a new Qi charger, the bits I forgot, grab a quick pint, then a haircut. Go to find C a wheatbag, proves to be a more problematic thing than it should be. Sort handgrips (the hairspray tip works!) and cook.

Pre-order the new Jetstream Pony album. Meet C off bus and a wee drop in the hand in the lickers. Back and food.

Season Cases packed and out for 06.30. slight panic that they go to the right Bus.  Sorted, I go for a stroll down to the Spar to take some pics.  C rings to find out where I am.
Breakfast at 9.00 and pile into the bus for 10.00 to return home.  We stop in Beverley, with time enough to get scran and a drink but not enough time to do anything like visit the Minster. C is livid.  I’m a little more chilled but I’ve been to Beverley before.  Pint then into a bakery for a sausage roll for C and Bacon, Cheese and Leek pastie for me.
Remount the bus and off we go, weather is foul, roadworks everywhere, C gets a bit stressed about us arriving at the interchange in time to catch the feeder coach. We get back to Burtonwood at around 16:15.  Half an hour an we get on the feeder and wonder of wonders we’re first drop. Back home, light shop and then Mr. Krispy shared kebab for tea.  Nice.​
