I noticed on Saturday night that while exploring - no, not fiddling - the new beta blogger site I'd managed to turn off the box for comments. I sure that this wouldn't have been missed by anyone else, but I'm an optimist by nature and live in hope!

I had a great day yesterday – I don’t get to spend so much 1-1 time with Tracy lately. She’s started a new job as a carer, so is often out in the evenings and at weekends and we both suffer by doing the weekly shop with our husbands instead. Yesterday was a catch-up day – we talked each other to death.

We didn’t get lost this time either – we did have a slight detour on the way when instead of turning off at Bromsgrove we headed on auto-pilot towards Merry Hill. After travelling about five miles in the wrong direction, half way through the conversation, Tracy queried where we were going – oops!

It went pretty much as described in Saturday’s blog, other than the fact we brought cookies to eat instead. They looked delicious – chocolate triple fudge – very thick, with lumps of white and milk chocolate pieces. We both look a few bites while looking at the stalls. After a minute Tracy turned to me and said, ‘we’ve done it again haven’t we?’. We most certainly had – they were vile. Other than the Chocolate pieces they didn’t taste very chocolaty and the biscuit itself was like eating powder – it was so dry. Yurk!

I found a couple of wooden signs that I liked – ‘Nobody notices what I do till I don’t do it’ and ‘The house was cleaned yesterday, sorry you missed it. My favourite had to be this one:





We also came across these dolls, the photo's aren't brilliant as they're off my mobile, but I'm pretty sure the male doll with his elephant pouch has been to Ann Summers

It’s obviously getting close to pay day for eldest son and future daughter-in-law as they both turned up at tea time on Sunday and left later that evening with a good portion of the contents of the freezer and cupboards.

I’ve not had chance to speak to Scally much this weekend, but I’m still one joke up on her, so by my reckoning I winning at the moment!
