We liked Buckingham so much last week that we went back again today and took mum with us. She liked the town, too but it was Sophie who had the best afternoon after we found a lovely little shop which sold second-hand designer clothes, shoes and bags. After much deliberating she chose a lovely top while I browsed the scented candles, beautiful ceramics and paintings which were also for sale.
We had afternoon tea at Connie's again and dodged the showers of rain that plagued us all afternoon. Summer seems well and truly over at the moment, but I still bought a citronella candle in a pot in case we have some more warm and sultry evenings to sit out in the garden.
Our planned evening meal of pork schnitzel didn't go as planned as the pork was too thick so we cut it into cubes and will use it as a curry tomorrow night. Our substitute meal of steak and garlicky potatoes went down very well in its place, though!

Buckingham sounds lovely. I usually resort to cling filming meat and bashing it flat with the rolling pin if it is too thick. Although, I think the steak would sway me away.
Thanks for the tip! It must be a good way of venting frustrations as well! ;)
I bought a bag too! :D x
You did - I must have had selective amnesia about that!
Actually, your father has just pointed out that he bought it!!! ;)
