I heard Charlie having some dry food at 5 am, but when I had a shower at about 7.30 am he was back on the sofa fast asleep, so in no hurry to go out today. He was still there when Darren took me into town for my eye appointment. He did go out after that, but not for long, so he has been around for most of the day. Outside the Brunswick Centre there is a huge deck chair, not quite sure why, no children clambering over it this morning.
I have new glasses on order now ad my prescription has changed a bit, but the cataract I was warned about a couple of years ago hasn't actually changed much, which is good and my eyes are healthy. I wore the Scholls again today and didn't manage too badly. Made my way along to the south bay, via the Grand Hotel, it was damp and actually quite chilly this morning. I made my way down the very steep path very carefully!
A couple of shots of the bay on a grey day, such a change from recent days.
I walked along a bit and got a £1 worth of 2ps for the machines, that was all and I managed to get a little bouncy ball which I will save for Isobel. Then I walked to the next bus stop and caught the open air bus along the front, stayed downstairs on the bus as I didn't want to go flying trying to keep the clogs on! Might as well have a picture of the north bay as well.
Walking up the hill home I had never noticed this sign before, must go and check it out one day.
I have been enjoying the Olympics, yesterday evening Tina joined me when we waited to see Max win bronze in the gymnastics with bated breath! Another silver this afternoon and I also caught up with Red Rock, which I am enjoying. This afternoon a had a rather large cat looking out of the window, stood on my mouse mat!!
No plans now, more sport I think!
Even on an overcast say I'd rather be walking at the seaside than anywhere else. Even with all the very steep bits! Bet there weren't too many holidaymakers on the beach today, it looks quite miserable.
ReplyDeleteGlad to hear 'your' cat is settling in. What's he going to do when you're not there?
Good news about the cataract, not so good about new glasses. I know you have to have special frames, and they're mega expensive!
The specs are about the same price as last time, which was good. Charlie has disappeared, didn't hear him go over the gate but he is too big to miss if he is up here!! It was nice by the bays even though it was a bit chilly!
