We ordered a pizza for dinner. Different pizza outlets are providing different offers, and we had a large pizza delivered for a tenner.
Dominos pizza is not fully loaded, and the crust is not very substantial. I am still a bit hungry.

Tax Correction
I have just got my P60, and for the first time ever, I am not getting a cheque from HMRC for overpaid tax. There went my holiday budget.

Thickest Drinking Chocolate Ever
I gave Sarah a hot chocolate last weekend, which reminded me to use up the really old tin of chocolate. And since I have some milk, I made some hot chocolate.
The hot chocolate is so thick, it dries my mouth as it goes down.
The hot chocolate is so strong, it hits my head every sip.
The hot chocolate is so thick, it will probably come out the other end smelling the same.
I should really be baking with it.

Free Things Come to Those Who Waits
WhatsApp wanted me to renew and the subscription fee. I refused to pay Facebook Inc, so I did not renew. Two months on, I clicked around on the phone, and WhatsApp is letting me use it for another year for free.
If all else fail, I can just use Line and emails.

Coldstones Cut
When Yan was here a few years ago, I took her to Fountains Abbey. On the way back, we stopped at Pateley Bridge. The visitor centre was closed but they had a leaflet on the window about The Coldstones Cut, so we went. My feet were so sore from walking in Fountains all day, somehow Yan still had the energy. I let her see the site on her own.
Sarah and I went to Fountains, and since the weather held up, we checked out the Coldstones Cut. It is interesting, but I will only revisit if they sort out their carpark!

Aldwark Bridge
Sarah and I were driving to Beningbrough, and the SatNAV mentioned about toll road, which we ignored. We did come across a toll bridge, Aldwark Bridge, which has its own TripAdvisor page. It costed us 40p.
It was quite scary, as it is an old wooden bridge. Little do we know it is 236 years old. Maybe Sarah and I can aim to cross more of these tiny toll bridges.

Market Everywhere
I was looking up events held in Kirkstall Abbey, and found there are market days in Kirkstall.
It is good for customers to see market stalls and produces and goods from small producers, but is it good for the traders?
For a few days in a month, the big supermarkets may have a tiny dip in their trade, or alternatively, a few days later, families has more food waste. For a trader to see good trade for the odd weekend, it may give them false sense of their trade, who may then mistakenly embark on a permanent shop.
I am mostly a browser, so all these markets are very entertaining for me.
