Running errands

It was Sophie's turn for new tyres on her car today and the fitter arrived at just after 8am. He wasn't finished by the time she had to leave for work, so I gave her a lift and we popped to Cafe 900 for a coffee and a muffin. We didn't have long to linger, though, and after five minutes I delivered Sophie to her workplace.

Back home we sorted Mike's "care" package out and added some Squashies sweets, Kinder Buenos, and a couple of cans of McEwans Champion to the box before taping it up and driving over to the post office in Brixworth. I sent it First Class so it should be with him tomorrow!

The weather has been abysmal today with rain all morning and into the early afternoon. After popping to the post office, we drove to the care home to take Mum's washing back, so that was all the errands completed. I spent the rest of the day pottering about and doing some jobs and at 4.30pm, when the weather had improved hugely, we drove down to Brackmills to collect Sophie.

This evening, Keith went to the last of the football finals at Sileby, while Sophie cooked dinner. I'd already prepared the vegetables and she made a delicious chicken, mushroom and pasta dish. After we'd eaten, we had a look for 90 Day Fiance on the television and realised it was on Discovery+, which costs £3.99 a month. We took the plunge and signed up, so now we can watch the series again, something we haven't done since 2020! It's definitely our guilty pleasure!
