Designer Shopping

It is always a shock to see how the other half lives.  I was helping my friends to get something from the outlet.  How can one knitware be £60, and that is after all the discounts.  Sarah and I spend that much for all our clothing in a year.

Coop Reopens

Coop has finally reopened after the fire.  It needs some airing out, the only way is to open the doors.  I was playing spot the difference.  They have got some new freezers and moves some baskets around.  I wonder if there will be more changes.

Sizzling Saturday

We went by many farm shops, and I concluded the Sizzling Saturday deal would give me a cheaper steak.  The steak and pork chop were quite nice from Waitrose!

Flash Seaside Break II

The accommodation's breakfast was also very good.  We watched some fishing league in Hornsea for a bit, then we went to Beverley on the way back, hoping to check out a windmill.  The windmill doesn't have its cap and sails on, which was quite disappointing.

Flash Seaside Break

I am not too far from the coast, and when I am on a bike, we just go to the coast on a day trip.  I spotted somewhere nice and at a very good price, so we went for a one day break!  We had sit down fish and chips, crab salad and scallops!  Such luxury.

Coarse Tofu

More supermarkets are putting out more tofu.  I don't know how to describe them except coarse.  They are not smooth like how they are supposed to be.  They are very strange indeed.  On the other hand, don't think of them as tofu, they are just protein...

Budgens Challenge II

We wanted a TGTG from Budgens, then it got cancelled, possibly because the increase custom from the Coop incident.  

Then we finally got one!

This time we got it! This time has a lot of fresh food, a lot of fruit and cheese.  We are very happy with this haul.
