Costco.

I've now done this blog twice, just to watch it disappear from the Universe for no apparent reason.
This effort will be brief!
A fun trip to Costco with Jan & Hazel (she has a card) to buy the vittles for the Barn dance tomorrow - cheddar cheese & Wiltshire ham, in the main.
Scrummy & a good price.

G stayed at home to welcome the aerial man as we have signal problems.
The aerial needed rewiring, but we still have a problem, with intermittent loss of signal.
Perhaps it's the box.

I went to Solihull afterwards, catching up with g, who had gone to oversee the finalising of the new boiler installation at P & A's.
On seeing the rather strange, elongated flue emerging at the side of the garage door, Th immediate concern, was "Will father Christmas get down that?"
I doubt it!

I stopped in Knowle en route & bought a picture of an owl - vintage majolica tiles by Maw & co, Burslem - they started making them again for a while in 1974, using techniques dormant since the 1880s.
It's brill!

Home made chili chicken & loads of vegetables for dinner - the highlight of the evening as TV is rubbish, as usual.
Looking forward to seeing the new bond film next week.
Barn dance looks hopefull - about 70 tickets sold.
