Thankfully Hubby is now much more mobile and very pleased to be able to drive again. I’m wary of him carrying anything too heavy, but, rest assured, he’s behaving and doing as he’s told 😉 Before his surgery we wrote The List. The Master List, you understand. With all the stuff we needed to acquire before the big day. I’ve been working my way down it, but panicked about the bird flu situation and bought a frozen turkey. Usually we have a fresh crown from M&S but they aren’t cheap and often are a bit indifferent. So to keep this one moist I’ve put a dozen rashers of smoked streaky bacon from my favourite butcher’s shop in to the freezer, trying to avoid too many last minute purchases. I still haven’t made any mince pies as there’s barely any room to store them, so having promised them to the Beleagured Shopkeepers next Friday, I might make a batch on Thursday and then more for the family during the following week. Next job on The List is to get some decorations up…tomorrow maybe ?
