Stopped by the Warehouse, a sort of mix between Currys, Do-It-All and a miniature B&Q again today to pick up some stuff and wandered over to Briscoes for some “”haberdashery”” – don’t ask me why, because I’m not sure what we were actually looking for! We did come out with a large flask though, which will be great for road-trips. At least we won’t have to worry about Louise missing out on the coffee fill-ups!!

I’ve decided I don’t like major shopping trips. I tend to go into “”Grumpy Old Man”” mode – not too surprising really I suppose! Unfortunately, as the cottage is unfurnished, we don’t really have much choice at the moment………….mutter, mutter, grump, where’s me wine glass……………..

We did, however, pop back into Warehouse Stationery – no relation to Warehouse as far as I could figure! – to pick up a “”Managers Special”” printer we’d seen there just in case we/I need to use a fax, do some printing of CVs or photocopying. It was an HP OfficeJet 5610 All-In-One at a steal for $59 (about £25), and was only missing the paper feed/output tray – as I would only be printing the odd one or two things, no worries at all! I may after all be a frustrated geek – oh woe is me!
