Storm Dave incoming

I stuck these like new running shoes on the selling site that begins with a v. and rhymes with minted. I bought them and wore them a couple times for cycling. Anyway, they've been under the bed for approx 15 years! I styled them in the garden haha and a lady from Bury bought them approx 3 minutes after I uploaded! £5 each! Whether she wears them or is a re seller ( she asked me for the box ) good luck to her. It's £10 more than I had yesterday for something that could have gone to landfill or charity shop as I was definitely getting rid! They are cute though but I did try them on for old time's sake and they are no where near as comfy as they look! I've donated to a few sponsored events this month so have zero qualms about not dropping off at the local charity shop. 
Apparently there's a Storm called Dave on his way. It all sounds very casual but supposed to be very worrying if you believe the internet. 

We've an Easter Bonus visit from Oliver and his mum. Her friend from here was going over to see them and daughter hitched a lift back. We had planned on a day trip over on Friday anyway so we have guests for the week which is lovely. He is chatty and funny and knows what he likes and wants! He was up very early and after he had an extra breakfast with Bluebell and then extra extra breakfast toast with Grandad, he's having a nap. So is his Mum who is under the weather. I'm quickly recording this down and then I'm going to knit whilst there is peace and quiet! 

The world is bonkers - people were queuing up here panic buying petrol yesterday, and yet humans are on their way to the moon! 

I'm loving it though, it fascinates me. 

Hope it's  something good for your tea tonight.  I made a braising steak stew in the slow cooker yesterday and it's resting in the fridge to be reheated later on with some dumplings yet to be made.  Need to check I've enough suet. Will stroll Oliver up to the shop for some milk later on. It's cold and grey here. 

Right knitting before Nanna duties are full on in demand again! 

Rachel or Naaaaaaaanaaaah as I'm called!
