Big Al's Spot (& Annie too)

Had to go shopping today to get my beloveds Christmas presents.

I don't like shopping much, other than for myself, at the best of times, but with a duff ankle and sore toe it was even more of a chore than normal. I traipsed round the shops and managed to get a few things that I hope are better than some of the presents I've heard some people get, like:

• A spud pealer
• A mop
• A stuffed cows head to hang on the wall
• a pedometer
• a snow shovel
• a new milk-pan
• A remote control walking yapping dog
• a smoke alarm
• a plastic, toy mobile phone that played tunes
• a fake bottle of Tommy Girl (the stuff was orange!)

We will just have to wait and see.
