Quite a full day

I got some washing done this morning and a couple of chores before going to visit Bel for a chat and a cuppa. She showed me some photographs of her wedding day, when she was just twenty years old and also her card from the queen to congratulate her and her late husband on their diamond wedding anniversary. Very interesting to see the fashion, a lovely and simple dress from so long ago.
I was home for a while before catching the but into Hull and luckily my veggie box arrived before I went out. If anything it was even better, I really look forward to receiving them and seeing what I they will contain.
I caught the bus into Hull just before 12.20pm and got into the city just after 1.30pm. I went to a couple of stores in St Stephen’s and the went to a care called The Omelette and had an omelette for my lunch. After that I walked through the city to Princes Quay shopping centre stopping a some other shops on the way. Also took some photos.




The water near Princes Quay was mucky on the top but there were some large fishes in there.
Another unusual piece of street art and a shop window from inside the shopping  centre.


I made my way back to the station after stopping for a coffee and got home a little before six. After a cuppa I went out and watered the back garden and then Tina and I got the shopping order completed for delivery tomorrow. I had made a list of all the ingredients I needed for the Christmas cakes so it will be a bit delivery this time!
Relaxing now as it feels like it has been a busy day!

    You have been busy again today. Bel sounds an interesting lady
    The veg box is brilliant again. Bet you’ve never eaten so much fruit and veg. You should be really healthy by now.
    A little shopping trip into Hull is always a good idea. Bit of a trek on the bus, but worth it. They always seem to have some great art pieces to photograph. You always manage to get some great pics while you’re there. I love the giant Kraken trying to get out the building. Such a great idea 😊
    When are you going to start baking the Christmas cakes? Can’t believe it’s time to be thinking about them again!
    Not surprised it feels like it’s been a busy day, you’ve been on the go a lot of it 😊

    There have been some great displays and installations in Hull, a nice town anyway with interesting buildings.
    Bel is an interesting lady, it is good getting to know her.
    I enjoyed my leisurely shopping trip and did doze a bit on the bus both ways!
