New Year's Day

After last night's late night we were not up until quite late! It was rather colder than of late and also there was some mist around.

Jess wanted to take a selfie with the Nexus tablet using the back facing camera. Not sure about the chap alongside.

Late morning we walked to  Tesco for a newspaper. At the gate out of the marina over the footbridge it looks as if the prisoners are desperate for release.

Oh look! See what happens when you take a large shopping bag just to carry a newspaper!

We looked into several other stores for some replacement wine glasses but the shorter ones seem to have gone out of fashion and the tall ones will not really fit out shelf. We later discovered via the internet that they may only be available from catering suppliers.

Earlier, Christine had made a soup with some of the remaining vegetable portions and it was very welcome once we returned to the boat.

The afternoon was quite laid back - Mike tried to teach Jess Pontoon (twenty One) whilst she had more success in teaching him Rummy. However it is as well that we had an internet connection ti check the rules (LTRU).

It was nearly four o'clock by the time we set off to run the girls back home. We stayed there for a cup of tea but returned with enough time to roast our joint of lamb for tonight's roast rather than at the weekend. Well, everything is topsy turvey at this season.
