Off to town we go

Good morning one and all, well its another day of Blue Sky,s and Sunshine here on the south coast of the UK.  It is 9.00 am here and the temperature is already 21 c so a warm day ahead, so already finding it is heavy to breath with the humidity in this warm weather, but it is nice to see the sunshine.
Had a decent nights sleep last night, went to bed at 10.30, woke at 4.00 am for the bathroom then back off to sleep until 6.30 am so not to bad, had coffee at 7.00 then up and breakfast before the carer came at 8.20, so now all washed and groomed ready for the day ahead.

Today Pauline is coming round to take me down to Commercial road shopping precinct so that I can get a new battery fitted to my watch and I can also pay a couple of bills and have a look around the larger stores like Debenham,s and British Home Stores, so I need to get shaved and dressed ready for when Pauline gets here about 10.30.

Commercial Road Precinct
It is now 10.20 and Pauline has arrived so we get ann earlier start and head of down to Commercial road, again we will park in the Matalan Car park, it is only £2 for 2 hours so that will give us plenty of time to get the bit,s and Pieces done. anyway get the car parked and off into the precinct. It is very busy today, mainly with the new intake of University students out getting all there bits and pieces that they need for the term ahead.





Marks and Spencer
Anyway make our way along to H. Samuel the jewelers to get a new battery fitted into my watch, and then along to Marks and Spencer to get a couple of ready meals, pauline needs a few pieces as well, not the easiest shop to get around with a wheel chair, and so many people just will not move out the way when you are trying to get around the aisles, still once you rattle there shins with the foot rest,s on the wheel chair they soon get the message. anyway get what we want from there and then make our way to Debenham,s so I can pay my  Debenham,s Account. Decide to have a coffee in Debenham,s cafe while we are here, get 2 coffee,s 1 sandwich for Pauline and a lemon Meringue for me " How Much" £9.81, Bloody daylight robbery, still needed the
 coffee, have the refreshment and then pay the account and out of Debenham,s and over to Wilkinson,s.



Wilkinson,s Portsmouth

We go into Wilkinson,s with 30 min,s until the  parking ticket expires, Haven't been in Wilkinson,s for months, Pauline needs an Ironing board cover and I need to get some light bulbs for Gervase, anyway get what we want and make it back to the car park with 5 minuets to spare.

Albert Road
The last thing we have to do is to go and pick up my prescription from the Doctors at Eastney Health Centre, and drop it in to the chemist so that they can deliver it tomorrow, so decide for a change we would drive there via Albert Road, so that was a nice trip, got the prescription into the chemist OK and then home for a nice cup of coffee and a spot of lunch, and then a well deserved rest, pauline comes in and has a coffee with me and then makes her way home, and I get my lunch.

Just looked at the clock and it is 5.00 pm, don't know where the afternoon went, had a stroll around the block to get a bit of exercise and had a nap in the armchair, spent a bit of time on the laptop and that is it for this afternoon, Gervase phoned to say he has been working up in London Today so he will be coming in a bit earlier to see me today as he always gets away early when he is up in the London Office, so that will be nice so he will probably be here about 5.30 - 6.00 depending on what train he can get from london, hopefully there will be no delays tonight as they are having problems on the railways because of people pinching the cables from the signalling system to sell off as scrap metal, (what ever next ????), anyway will start to get dinner ready so will see you all tomorrow and tomorrow will be exciting as it is Methotrexate day and my Social care assessment Yipeeeee. Tatty bye one and all.
