Sky Pictures


Another busy week this week including, unfortunately, a funeral today.
It was for my Uncle Brian, the last of mums siblings.
 He was 86, had Alzheimer's, asthma and a liver problem He ended up having a heart attack while he was in hospital. I think it was a blessed release for him in the end. His wife Dorothy looked very frail though. We spent the reception reminiscing about old times with Dorothy and the cousins who managed to get there. We are scattered all over the country so don't get together now except for funerals which is so sad.
 
The challenge this week is Skies
so far I have managed to take these photos

Centenary

We've got the grandchildren all week so I can't do justice to the challenge but I thought I would post some photos from our visit to the local museum.



They had their first trip on the top deck of a bus to get there.

Frequently visited place

This could have been Asda, Morrisons or Aldi, my bed, my seat or the garden but after thinking all week about this I have chosen this photo.
My Frequently Visited Place
The cupboard where I keep the tea and coffee.

Friends and Seasons Outfit

I went to Blackburn today to visit my friend Brenda.
We went to an outlet centre called Boundary Mill in Colne at the end of theM65.
There is a Fish and Chop there that does gluten free batter so of course we had to go and have fish and chips and a glass of Dandelion and Burdock.
We felt quite decadent.
Friends
My GF fish - really very tasty. I've not had Fish and Chips for a long time
We then went round the outlet centre and I found a cotton blouse in M&S that will do for both Summer and Winter for only £9 - a bargain.
Not exactly my favourite summer outfit
but certainly my coolest

Meal and feet first

I'm a bit mixed up this week (nothing new there)
 
Today we went to buy Olivers new shoes for school and while we are at the retail park we went into a new café. The Ultimate café inside the Ultimate Outdoor store. They made gluten free food that is very good so we had to try it.
This seasons favourite meal
 pancakes with Maple syrup and ice cream

 And Ice cream for Oliver
