Breakfast...


...was followed by some adding and tagging of downloaded music...

At 11:30, over to my mum's to take her to the Gyle shopping centre to (a) do her weekly shop (b) allow her to spend a token received at Xmas for Marks & Spencer and purchase a present for her chum Jeanette and (c) have a spot of lunch...

Into Morrisons, contraption secured...


..and round we went...


Back to the car to unload and then back in...


...and along to M&S where there was some protracted discussion re the nature of two tops to be bought - let's just say our ideas were not in synch....

In the end, two nice ones (in my mum's eyes  - which was the important thing) chosen - and a nice scarf too for her friend (my childhood next door neighbour)...

Then, to the café for toasties and tea...



A long drive home as the bypass was blocked...

Mum was soon back in her home in her seat with all chores done and shopping packed away...

Home for coffee in the back garden with Anne...


I tried out the Almond milk I'd bought -  a third of the calories of skimmed milk...

Unfortunately, this was reflected in its taste...

It will probably be OK in cereal...

Anne went for our own shopping and I continued to bring things up to date...

Organizing too the choosing of the set list for next Sunday - each member of the group picks four songs...

Watched a video of clips of every single Eurovision winner - dearie me some absolute howlers in there...

On Anne's return, we watched the enjoyable film "Shazam" - starring "Chuck", Zachary Levi...

Then more "work" while Anne made a tasty curry for tea...


In the evening, commenced choosing and researching albums for the latest year on the Twitter, 2000...

"Needed" to download around 15 LPS I don't seem to have...

A couple of "Modern Family" and off to bed at midnight...

Highlight of the Day : Hmmm... Definitely Anne's curry - although shopping with my mum was reasonably enjoyable too...
