A Saturday off work!

Hello to everyone reading this.

Its quite unusual for me to have a Saturday off work, but i had some holidays left so i thought i would take today off.

We have been quite lazy, as we only got up at 10 am, it was so nice and cosy under the new duvet, and we didnt want to budge really. It was a very cold night...about -5C i believe and it was still quite misty when Dale drew the curtains back.

I had been told there was a parcel for me in the back of the car, but that i couldnt bring it in and open it until Saturday...no idea why like. Anway Paul said he would come with us, so first of all we set off to Bolton and PC World as i need a few things from there. After that we went to the Reebok, and to JJB Sports, as Dale wanted something or other there. It urned out that they didnt have what he wanted, so we decided to head for the coast, and to Southport.

By this time the mist was almost fog in some places, but as it was still light it wasnt too bad. We had a look round the shops, and Dale got what he wanted from the JJB there, then we went to this nice chippy right in the centre of the town. It was time for the football to start, and i insisted that we listen to the commentary of the Sheffield Wednesday vs Preston game. The decision went down fairly well actually, and at least it got that awful dance music off for a while.

Anyway we managed to win 3 - 1 so i was smiling about that. By this time it was getting quite dark, and we decided to head for Wigan again, as Paul was going to his girlfriends to stay over night, as tomorow Sunday Dawn was about to have things done to her, to induce the baby. More of that when the time comes!

Anyway i got the parcel at last, and to my surprise it was an electric steamer that i always wanted. We like fresh vegetables a lot, but its not always easy to make them in the flat as we only have 2 rings on the cooker, so this will be excellent and i cant wait to try it out.

As i type this, it is feeling very cold again, and i have turned the heating up more than usual.

Thanks for reading this, and hope to give you news of the impending baby soon!!

lots of love from tony, and dale, and everyone else.
