And there was an April shower washing the streets of London! Such rain too, for you could hardly see the other side of the street. And, then oh boy, it got so cold, she took her jacket on and put the Ellie's Dairy apron on when Joe went for a walk-about and to get water for the kettle. And put it on again very smartly when he returned!
But earlier on, she wasn't 'with it' at all because she had got seriously muddled up! Her day started with an appointment with Doctor Katherine. After leaving the surgery, she took the prescription down to her chemists, then crossed Sloane Street to catch a 19 bus to Green Park.
She got on the bus, changed at Oxford Circus and it was only when she reached Tottenham Court Road, that she realised her brain and feet had taken her in completely the wrong direction, she was heading to Moorfield.. duh.
Getting off, she walked down Berwick Street and wiggled through into Chinatown. When she was buying vegetables.. BANG.. there was a big crash of thunder! Huh.. now what shall I do, shall I go home, go to Borough or go to Balham?
She decided to do Borough Market first, that's when she heard the second crash which was right over head and which had sounded like a train leaving London Bridge Station.
She also went walk-about and snaffled a tiny morsel of Blau Herni from Jumi Cheese.. oh, it is an exceedingly delicious cheese. Then having handed over the Kai-Lan and a couple of other things to Joe for Goaty mum, she and WW left for the station.
Underground to Westminster, change to Circle, off at Victoria, overland to Balham, purchased a gift, up Balham High Street to a different Polish shop for pure Beetroot juice.. note to self.. I should / must remember to keep a few boxes of this in stock at home as it is magical stuff when you cannot find any really fresh beets in the market.
Home via Lidl, where she saw and bought a small packet of funny looking small dog biscuits for me and when she got home, she offered one to me! "Grrr.. never seen it before.. take it away.. it might be a monster.. grrr", (I'm a 'bit' of a wimp when introduced to something new).
Bright sunny day today, that strange thing was in my dish this morning, it will take me about a week to realise that they're fun and crunchy and good to munch upon, until then, I'll throw them on the foor, luckily we don't - touch wood - appear to have mice in residence at the moment.
And that's you up to date with our news, she has to collect her eye medicines from our lubbly-jubbly chemists, Andrews' in Sloane Street, and then go to find something up in Streatham.
I am long overdue giving you that recipe for roasties with rosemary, I'll do that this evening but until then, dodge those naughty showers and remember.. hiphip hooray.. tomorrow IS the First of May!
GeeGee Parrot.
