A misty start at our peak district cottages which never really cleared. First thing our Banking Business Manager called in for a regular chat and review. Late morning we set off for Chesterfield with a long shopping list. Roadworks and accidents meant it took longer to get there than usual. A trot round the shops looking at microwaves, kettles (two went over New Year) and fridges. We did come back with a microwave and two kettles from Currys. Had a nice lunch at the Peacock coffee lounge before doing the rounds of Wilkinson’s and the likes. No time for Dunelm today but called in at Morrison’s on the way back. First time I have done a big supermarket shop since 8 December! No wonder my cupboards have been looking bare!
