Time to catch up - again

Wednesday evening already, comes as a bit of a shock to the system. Backtracking - Sunday was supposed to be our day, but we headed to Booker's Cash and Carry for "a tin of tuna" !!! then into my favourite shop, Matalan - but to no vail, no bargains for me in the sale. met up with RGB and took ourselves to a Toby Carvery for lunch - very fast servoce,, in fact hardly got the chance to sit down before we had our paltes in hand and were being served at the hot counter - I would have preferred the meats to be up for extras rather than the veg - and - did not really rate it too well, but filled a space. Next stop was the Vue Cinema at Ocean Terminal, definately a true story, of "Captain America" - must say I enjoyed it, but Mrs B. was not enthralled - would not believe it was a true story. And despite our best efforts we ended up back at the Dolphin Inn.
Monday, had a shift at the Dolphin, managed to get a few jobs done before heading home and a quiet night .
Tuesday, back to the Dolphin, another shift, and some very nice customers in for lunch, and a lovely little lass who could not only chatter ninety to the dozen, but she was a great wee eater, she had Aubergine and stilton soup ; "Amy's hot dog", and finished off her ice cream - made a change from some the picky little people we have seen over the years.
Home via the farm - had a chat to the bulls, and then headed for the Police Club in York Place to the monthly meeting of the Lothains Branch of the International Police Association. We have quite a number of foreign police officers arriving in the City over the next few weeks and will be entertaining quite a bit.
Even managed tro catch up withSir Christopher in Henricks Bar on my way home - soda water rather than wine, but I was driving of course.
Today - Wednesday, had a session at the dentists with the "Paddy vampire" the hygenist, and then off on my steed of steel, back to the Dolphin Inn of course to repair a door lock. B & Q for my discount on Diamond Day - next stop, Kings Buildings, then out to the farm again (tomorrow a long day talking to the animals).
Home , feet up and a bit of catch up on the box.
