Day 21 - Fish Market

Anyone for Octupus - 8 hands shot up!!!


Lazy start to the day, then drove to Birkenhead,( not the one in Liverpool where you might require an escort!) Did a little shopping, Chalk just happened to find tops which he decided could be my birthday present to him, quite clever really because he knows what a bad memory I have. I bought two pairs of shoes, which is just the thing I need when my case is already seriously full!!!! Ma at Birkenhead Point after shopping and lunch (with wine!!)

After a lovely lunch break at one of the Sailing Club's we then finally set off for the Fish Market.
Obviously I have known my son for a long time, however the brain has dimmed in the last 18 months, so why should it surprise me when we arrived as it was closing! Fortunately we just managed to purchase some Salmon in time. Near the entrance they were boxes of live King Prawns and watched with amusement of one escaping, Chalk was cheering him on "Go on fella" I do think they are quite ugly but not as bad as the Lobster
Anzac Bridge - Number 3 of the 7 bridges walk

Gareth arrived for another Chess game (and to watch football). I was so full from lunch still, so I was happy wih a Chip sandwich but did cook for Bek, Chalk and Gareth and they are still alive and kicking. Can't have Bek cooking every night! (sorry Bek, we like pulling your leg, how many times is it now 3 in 3 weeks) Footbridge that Joaney tries to claim is bridge 8!!!
ha ha ha

I finally found time to look through Bek's England Album, it is so good and amazing how much it reminds you of past times. Not quite so good when you are still wearing all the same clothes!

Time running short now, Started packing.... Love to all, Night Jxx
