Buzzing and oh no, no power!

 We had a super Saturday starting off with a visit to town. The sun was shining and even at just before 10:00 am, the temperature was 14.5C 

The Home and Colonial now has seats out side and is offering coffee and cake or even a small snack. I looked at the menu, pasty with coleslaw, some green salad made my mouth water. A lady was there drinking coffee and so I stopped to talk to her, she said the coffee was good, so we might try it, but we do like our Costa coffee and at the H&C, we'd be tempted to have cake as well!

You can even see them making the Welsh cakes through the window.

Just the smell alone is delicious. We have bought from there in the past, just two, so won't eat more than that. When we make them ourselves, we can scoff the lot in a couple of days!

The town was buzzing, lots of people and the Band made up of older people were there in the newly refurbished band stand..they were rather loud, in fact very loud. Their leader was walking up and down with a skiffle board, I thought my ear drums would burst as we walked past them!

 Several shops that sell plants had them  on display outside. normally I'd buy some, but I have grown a lot from seed this year so don't need any.

Dh wanted to go to Super Drug for his after shave cream and the doors were closed with a sign 'Sorry closed, no power!' We both looked at each other and I said.. 'Do you think they're linked to Harrods?' Dh didn't get the joke! 

We went next door to the Maple Kitchen shop. which if you like pretty china, you'd think you were in heaven! We bought two very pretty bowls, as side salad dishes, as Dh broke one.. so now we have two new ones. And then Super Drug was open, whew I thought the town had been targeted by peoples who didn't like the skiffle band noise...LOL!

C2460Z code is no longer needed in the Costa loo, its been disabled! In case you needed to know! I couldn't see the tiny numbers anyway!

It was a lovely morning and I read my book after lunch, Dh who has the fidgets, can't sit still for long, so cut away next doors 'Mile a minute' that grows over onto our side pathway.

An early night is on the cards, I've yawned several times,  must be the heat. Its 17.9C as I write this at half past nine at night.
