Soaps

Had to go and lay on bed for a while and after about 20 mins Ang rang and told me she’d be back in about an hour. She’d met her sister in Poole and had gone for a meal and would be starting back soon. I got up and warmed up some macaroni cheese and had a chunk of brown bread and butter with it. Ang got back and I made her a tea and me a coffee and she told me about her meal and time with her sister shopping. We booted up the computers after taking the dogs to the backwaters after our drinks and I got Ang to read the Alien draft. After she told me what she thought I did a bit more and watched some more news. Struggled a bit with the the writing as too bothered about news so had a break for a while and cooked myself vegetable rice with a piece of chicken and Indian vegetables with chilli. Felt up to doing more after something to eat so carried on for a while and then stopped for the One show and then Corrie. Dogs disturbed me during the second half. Dainty wanted to go out and Buster wanted his supper. I took them out for a wee and then fed them. Afterwards we turned over to the Bill and I booted my computer and carried on doing this post while waiting for delivery between 8 and 9 from Sainsbury’s. God help them for not supplying what I need for free. They have big pockets though. Added this to Alien earlier.
Today went as planned. Both tired and hungry when we arrived. Will begin action tomorrow as need to work out solution. News media going mental at minute over acceptance of the treaty.
I finished writing and Angela had just finishing phoning the order. “They said about 30 minutes” she said. “I suppose we better find some plates out of the kitchen boxes so we can eat” I replied. Together we searched through the boxes in the kitchen. After a few minutes we had plates, mugs and cutlery ready which we took into the lounge and turned the TV back on. I switched to ITV and then realized we had about 10 minutes to Corrie. I carried on writing.
So far we’ve got dogs sorted and everything looks to be here. Only managed a crappy sandwich on journey here so getting Indian. Dogs did well on trains although I had to stand most of the way. Angela enjoyed Coventry again but didn’t manage to visit family there. Got settled in for soaps and everything calm at minute.
“I’m glad they set everything but the kitchen up. There’s not much I need to move around. We need to stock the freezer up as soon as possible. I can’t be bothered to do an order tonight. I just want to get lost in all the stories. See if I can get the fools out of this mess. I think I’ll do better when I’ve slept and got something decent inside me.” I said looking at Angela from my cushion. “It’s not your problem now.” Angela replied. “Don’t believe it won’t be. Just because they wouldn’t listen doesn’t mean I’m not going to solve a problem they don’t even know they have yet” I said. Corrie came on and we both turned our attention to the TV. It seemed strange that they had a party in the street. The twins had crashed their flyer pod and one was receiving treatment for a broken leg. They’d come down into the side of a house at the end of the street. At that moment the dogs went mad at a knock on the door. I opened the door a crack so Buster couldn’t get past and asked how much. Nearly 20 quid. I paid and smiled as the young Muslim handed over the paper carrier. I took it indoors and took the plastic containers and foil dishes out. Even the salads and sauces came in recyclable containers these days. Angela helped me dish up. She had a chicken bhuna and I had a chicken pathia. We had Bombay potatoes
and pilaw rice as well. I had chapattis with mine and mint sauce. After we’d eaten we carried on watching TV. Eastenders started and the Queen Vic was in the spotlight again. A fight had broken out during a hen night and a lot of blood had been spilled when one of the girls smashed a glass on the bar and slashed Minty’s wife’s face. They were strangers to the square and had been playing up all evening. I said to Angela “It’s more realistic than Corrie. Hope they follow through with this properly now they’ve started. I got up and took Angela’s things out and dumped them in the kitchen out of the way of the dogs. We’d both saved them a bit of chicken each when we finished eating. I got the leads on the dogs and grabbed my coat and took them for a walk. The nearest grassed area was about 10 minutes away and Buster peed all the way there. I let them both off and they started playing and chasing one another. I stayed about 10 minutes and then went back to the flat and locked the front door. Angela was still watching Corrie when I got back and it finished with the scene of the police flying off with the uninjured twin and the ambulance taking the other to the healing centre.
Dogs settled now til we go to bed with their after dinner chews. Decided to finish this post and watch TV. Delivery arrived just before I posted so put shopping away and added this. Ordered 3 different packs of butter and not one was delivered. No eggs either or frozen mixed veg. Noticed loads of errors in earlier posts but can’t be bothered to put them right. Doesn’t seem important.
