The small people returned to school today leaving just Angel and me at home and we have had such a beautiful day it was too good to stay indoors. We travelled 8 miles to the next town for market day .... taking my new trolley for its first run out. The little one thought it was great and insisted on dragging it around until it got too heavy. My lot laughed at my granny trolley but they are well worth investing in .... loads of room ... stands up on its own when you stop to buy/look at something else and unlike the husband doesn't wander off!! Angel loves the charity shops and we came home with a dozen new books, three pairs of pumps for me (brand new and only £1 each) in orange, turquoise and a CKesque floral print. Also found this boxed set entitled Best Kept Secrets of the Women's Institute, in pristine condition with an RRP of £32 - purchased for £3 and well worth it. When my gals saw them they were horrified and thought I was going all Julie Walters on them and asked if I was getting my baps out! There wouldn't be enough icing and cherries big enough for mine ......
It's always a pleasure to see them return after a holiday, isn't it?
ReplyDeleteThe hectic preparation the days before their return, the sadness of a holiday's end, all fade away when they arrive with such bright and beautiful smiles just for you!
Have fun!
