Wednesday and things get a bit better. Struggling with the old mental health a but work helps. Glimmer 2 see’s me at the open air gallery in town. People apparently Mek Wigan.
Nature’s beauty, bit of a rambling concept this one the constant generation and degeneration of nature, yadda yadda yadda! Lazy day, lie in, gentle amble via the chicken shop as we begin the Kidney friendly diet for C. Plan is some sort of Waldorf Salad for tonight. This is followed by a visit to The Coffee Shop.
C visits the ATM and then on to Iceland to view veggie options. Then Lidl. Wee pint in the Tom and Gerry and home. Cook us some scrambled eggs for lunch with a few mushies.
Salad works well and is popular with herself.
In other news, the work on nature’s beauty that will be this Roots allotment is gathering pace, still no idea where their site is but they are communicating with me at least!
A playful day off. First up a wee lie in, then a trip to Wigan to fetch the bike and pop the council tax dosh into the bank. Clearly the Nationwide has only recently reopened because I score a free tote bag. Turns out useful because I’ve not dressed for the cycle and it goes onto the back rack with the lock in it. Prior to that though breakfast at the Station Cafe.
Train back to Bryn, visit the quacks to fetch a bloods form and pots for C to piss in. Back to the house and play with a playful Elsie.
C arrives home, we both have a shower and it’s best bib and tucker for Joe and Margaret’s Diamond Wedding Anniversary up at Aspull British Legion. Bee App gives us the route. C not happy at the walk to the Legion. Celebration is fun and good to catch up with folk.
In search of something shiny I revisit the Lucky Cat at the Wallgate Chippy. Last of the earlies before a couple of days off. Team have been having fun whilst getting the job done. A better day but not ideal. Last call just before I leave means it’s tight for the train. I jump a bus home.
Food from the chippy. Try ringing Beck because it’s her birthday, no answer.
From Below leads me to the bridge at the station. It’s a place I’ve photographed sporadically because I love the industrial nature and lines it offers.
Odd day, no idea how it finished up but I do know I have a phone to code in the morning so that’s not too bad. Still struggling with HBB but did a regrade. Another cycle to work, came back on the bus. Phone C from below on the double decker she lets me know who I’m feeding.
Elsie has apparently been sleeping most of the day. C is worried.
Cycle in today, nice wee ride in the rain, the glasses definitely need the addition of windscreen wipers. Quick change of plan to go to the top of the Mill to take this. Escherisc view of the stairs from above.
Day starts slow, then improves and then slows down again. Dash back home to be back for C’s appointment at the hub. Hop on the bus and wait in the surgery. We get seen and then have a 20 minute wait for the next bus.
Tea from the Chippy, ’tis Steven’s birthday and he’s been for a curry with his Dad and Ryan. That’s cool. Meanwhile Elsie has been paddling in the sink bowl and has orange paws. Apparently she was indignant as Ryan used baby wipes to clean her paws.
OK and I’m running late. Grab coffee and sarnies and take photo of a sign I saw the other day that made me laugh out loud, people are so feral. Day went better than the last couple.
Swift pint tonight after work, day went a bit better, still not great. On the plus side the team is fab and that keeps you going.
Tuesday and a horrible day. Calls are awful. Still on the plus side a brew at Kawas.
Movements – first late and I’m flying, value is shite, conversion good. Feeling crap. Long shift.
