It has been a busy few days here.
Last Saturday I went Christmas shopping with my mum in Manchester.
It was a typical grey, wet, Manchester day
we went first to the John Rylands Library for a coffee and a look around this magnificent building
Then we wandered around the Christmas Market in Albert Square
And we popped inside the entrance of the Town Hall to see a few stalls set up inside.
It was busy but not too crazy and the stall holders were doing a fair trade. After a little shopping....
..... we headed to the Little Yang Sing for tea!
Hubby's Birthday was on the 21st and it was the Shortest Day....grey and drizzle didn't keep us in
we decided to go for a walk locally
Then on the Thursday it was a beautiful day but Hubby was in work!
I went to pick him up in Manchester after his Christmas meal.
The stalls on the Christmas market were packing away to go home for Christmas
I got a great bargain of a big bag of mixed bulbs for £1
and on another stall I bought some little wooden Christmas trees and the stall holder threw in a handful of little tree ornaments for nothing!
Then yesterday it was food shopping and delivering presents to family and friends and a quiet night in front of the TV.
Today the sun is shining so we are off for a walk...see you later.
