Thor

I was off today but was woken by an almighty thunder, lightening and hail storm, we haven't had one like that for quite a while.  Stayed in bed for half an hour then decided to get up, it was almost time anyway.  Had a coffee then jogged for 45 minutes.  No idea how I managed it, after 45 seconds I could feel my thighs complaining, but I had already told myself the exercise would help shift the cold, so I ploughed on with the most upbeat music I could find on my iPod. 

I'd asked J if she wanted to go to the next town over for a coffee and a few bits and pieces, she's not been 100% lately and has had a rough week, thought it would give her the chance to talk if she wanted to or to take her mind off things.  Anyway, I picked her up as planned, (we now had a beautiful blue sky and sunshine after the storm,) and we headed for the first stop... coffee.

J is voucher Queen, I think we.... J, would have spent £51.00 in total but got £15 off in free vouchers!  Told you she was good.

In one shop, J insisted on buying me an Airtex top.  Remember Airtex?  It's the type we had to have in school for P.E.  Funny, airated material, short sleeves, collar, three buttons?  Kind of like a Polo Shirt.  Anyway, aged 14-15 were reduced from £7.00 to £1.00 and after J decided it would fit me, J decided I should have it... only she always buys in bulk, so I ended up with two.  She's right, they do fit but when I'm going to wear them, I have no idea.  Maybe for gardening?  By the way... were they that see through in school?

I stopped off on the way home for milk, fruit and cottage cheese, then arrived home to iron.  Forgot to tell you, the rain hammered down as we were on our way back to the car, would have been a shame not to get wet today as I've got soaked every other day this week.

I know that I'm not on the subject, but can I just take a moment to tell you that Marks & Spencers Low Fat Cottage Cheese, is disgusting.  It takes a lot for me to use that word but trust me... it's warrented.
