Albatross HouseWalking down T Road and a woman in her forties said to me, "I had no idea any of this existed" and laughed manically.

Tested camera on wall - picture of the site of Albatross House.

Dropped cards into work - took an hour.

Went to farmers' market and spent £45 on cheese (this is the real shit) with and £8 on chorizo with Patrick. 

Bought bacon bap from van - delayed by (homeless?) woman who was failing to pay, then failing to find her purse (she'd got it out already).

Charity shopping. Nada.

Boots for prescription. Tesco for remains of food shop. Need crackers, though. And something else. I forget. I couple more cards.

Listening in to discussion on Pratchett book: Mr Discworld Monthly remains unconvinced. C'est le vie. http://www.discworldstamps.co.uk/forum/viewtopic.php?t=10560&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=0&sid=6edbaefd7475f22bf5239f1dc6ef9a8f
And so to the second day of the food festival, which seems to have replaced the British Foodfestival and the Eurofair (£3 for a garlic bulb territory) and launches the festival. Colour me cultured. Neither of the dip men were here, nor were English Heritage, but there were two cheeses - Ashmore and another beginning with w which I'll edit in later. Unpasteurised. Yum. One needs to survive to Christmas. Place your bets. Four stalls selling fudge. Successfully avoided. Several chocolate stalls. Avoided.

Two veg box schemes. To be checked out.


There was the bloody annoying man from local radio with a microphone being bloody annoying.


It was particularly annoying to hear him saying that the pork roast was available over there, when over there was the queue I was stood in and there was no pork roast yet. Or sausages. But bacon if I waited. There were burgers, which were okay. But not to have food at, oh, 1.00pm. Seems short sighted.

Edit: I've ordered a small 1-2 person box for Friday - contents last week were 1/2 cauliflower, red potatoes, red onion, 1lb new potatoes, 1/2 bunch spring onions, leeks, 1/2ln tomatoes, 1/2 red cabbage, sprout top, 1/2 cucumber, yellow pepper, walnuts. I'd say a little expensive but free delivery and it ought to save hassle.
