As usual for a Tuesday, we had to go and do the shopping for the rest of the week but today I also wanted to get my Mum's presents for her birthday on Thursday.
We didn't have to take Mike to college because he had a lift in with a friend, so after getting ready we traipsed over to the Weston Favell centre and made a beeline for Tesco where Sophie bought cards for my mum. We made our decisions about meals and whilst shopping in one of the aisles spotted a woman drinking from a small bottle of red wine! Sophie couldn't believe what she was seeing and exchanged amazed looks with another customer who was also gazing at the woman in disbelief! I know that Cameron Diaz drinks from a bottle of wine whilst grocery shopping in The Holiday, but I've never seen it happen in real life!
From the Weston Favell Centre we drove down to Next on Riverside and were smacked in the face by their Christmas offerings as soon as we walked through the doors! There's no hiding from it now! We looked at the homewear stuff but in the end decided on a beautiful necklace and a snazzy scarf to match. We hope she likes our choices!
The Costa at Next was crowded so we walked the short distance to the other Costa and enjoyed hot drinks and my first mince pie of the season!
