Bright.

The winds have shifted and are now bringing cold air and brighter skies. It would have been a good day for a walk along the beach but Peter's knee is playing up today. Instead I went shopping, something I prefer not to do on a Sunday. Initially I was surprised to see so many people shopping but then again if people are working Monday to Friday or even Saturday then having the shops open until 4.00 on a Sunday is very convenient. Having written out a shopping list I wasn't too happy when upon entering Lidl's I found only an old list in my pocket. Luckily when I got back in the car I found the correct list on the car seat and I was able to complete my shopping in Tesco's. The only item I didn't find was poppy seeds for a new recipe for traditional Lithuanian tiny biscuits. I'll go into town on Friday and get some from the spice and olive stall which has just about every spice.

I picked up a few bargains on my shopping trip, mangoes for 17p each, baby corn for 30p and  boxes of savoury Indian snacks for 50p. I've chopped up one of the mangoes as a treat for tonight and it's in perfect condition.
