Advent. First Sunday of. I do have an advent calendar to open but I rarely eat chocolate these days and haven’t yet made my mind up whether to start on it. Still mulling it over. In the meantime the great jar of marmalade hunt has started in the kitchen. We definitely have some as THG used it yesterday but blowed if either of us can find it in the fridge. Fortunately, this being a storecupboard item, we happen to have a backup in said storecupboard. In case of nuclear winter etc. It is not helped by the fact that we have two jars of apricot jam (I don’t know either) and a marmalade jar containing pickled cucumber (yup) in said fridge. You might already have guessed I’m having toast for breakfast. The simple things in life.
Booked a trip to Liverpool whilst lying in bed this morning. £27.25 return. Nine pence a mile. To Liverpool. Not first class for that money but there ain’t a first class option so couldn’t do that anyway. The drive to Liverpool is v tedious and the parking would have cost that much. I’ll be able to do useful things on the train innit. Look at the scenery. It’s almost a four hour journey. Let’s hope that travel isn’t disrupted by snow. Don’t mind being disrupted once we’ve made it to Liverpool and have to stay over a few extra nights.
