So had a big burger combo, but a REAL burger not a chain one, for lunch. Then had a looksee around the mall, looked at clothes shops, both men and women, the big newsagents in town, Angus and Robertson, Target Country, which only had clothes, a quick trawl through Chicken Feed and then got pressies for both V and my nieces' birthdays... had a quick look through Sanity and thought of getting DVDs and CDs, but can do that at home...
Went to Harris Scarfe, a Tassie version of Farmers or Myer I think, saw nice clothes, but since they were shirts and since I had already bought clothes from K-Mart earlier that day, was talked out of buying more - although that Fila shirt especially was nice. Got out of town, parked at the war memorial at the mouth of the Mersey river, took a few piccies.
Visited V's former teacher, had a reasonable chat and a quick coffee before going to the movies to see Fun With Dick And Jane. Still shuddering at the thought of the last movie we saw in Tas, Constantine, but Dick and Jane got a good review from V.
Came home, V cooked the 'bottom butcher' sausages in the George Foreman grill, and, as she has told everyone since, not one drip of fat came out of them - and they were yum as well. Watched Top Gun on DVD that night - were all the plotlines cliches when it first came out, or just in the twenty years since? Such a brilliantly cheesy movie...
Wednesday started off quietly, a lazy breakfast and then V and I headed into the school that she works at. Caught up with SKA in the office, and then headed to The Deli for lunch with both SKA and LHA. I had a Hot and Spicy bagel, was very yum, the girls chatted and V sent me to check the barbeque sauces, before heading back to school and the girls chatting for another hour or so.
In dropping off LHA she suggested we head out of Caveside which I picked up, even though V wasn't so sure about doing a country drive. So we drove through the countryside, past Chudleigh and Caveside, through Mole Creek, and decided to go on a bit further to King Solomons Cave, through the Great Western Tier conservation area, mmm old forest smell and feel, before deciding to head back.
Had an ice cream at Chudleigh, told LHA we were lost in an SMS, and then headed back home. V and I had a very nice, very civilised evening in, with the roast turkey roll, roast potatoes, roast sweet potato, parsnips, carrots and pumpkin, while I watched the various news services - was very yum when we tucked into it.
Oh, after tea on Tuesday we had gone out to the new, improved Woolworths to trawl the aisles and get the sweet potato - although V wouldn't come down the last aisle with me, freezer section LOL. After the roast we had a quiet night, V cross stitching, while I Movie Showed, Ab Fabbed - although that show was always sucky, trying to update it to modern times is wankier still - and we both Bachelored. Went to bed, tried watching City of Angels, but someone kept falling asleep LOL.
