That was the last tin of oxtail, and I need to stock up with soup and other tinned goods generally. It so happens that I have a voucher giving me thirteen quid off a ninety quid spend at Sainsbury's which expires today. So I shall be heading over there and buying lots of things that have a long shelf life, like laundry stuff and tinned foodstuffs. At least I have a pantry to store it all in now
Over to the old flat where, among other things, I trundled forth the recycling bin, it being clear that nobody has stepped up to take on this responsibility. But there'll be some recyclable stuff among the final clearout so I'll need it myself at some point. I suppose I'll be the one to bring it in tomorrow as well
And I also disassembled my bed, ready for transportation to the tip. It's a pine thing and I did think I could hang on to it Just In Case the wood Came In Handy at some point. But it was only a cheap thing in the first place and it's seen a lot of wear, so I'd just end up with a lot of wood I'll never use cluttering the garage. I might hang on to the slats because they won't take up much space, but the rest of it can go to the tip to find a new life as chipboard or something
Then onwards to the Big Sainsbury's, where I carried out my plan of buying lots of stuff that has a long shelf life. I won't have to worry about laundry or dishwasher supplies for a long time, and I'm OK for bin liners and various other such things too. So I got my thirteen quid off
And so home to put everything away, and to guzzle the two sweet chilli chicken thighs I picked up at the tepid food counter
The car earlier was yet another Porsche 911; DVLA doesn't recognise the reg number, so maybe the youngish chap who bought it found it a bit hard to handle and came to a sticky end
And then the latest episode of Surgeons
And after that I turned the telly off and finished reading Agent Jack. A very interesting tale
I have a Vitality nurse visit today to check me over to make sure I'm still insurable (income replacement insurance). One last day at work before taking a week off
