Poppy-Pants!

An independent lingerie shop (Ruby and Betty's - aimed at the more mature lady as opposed to the Ann Summers crowd!) decided to commemorate  Lincoln currently having the Poppy Wave display at the castle by doing a little display of their own!

My trip to town today was annoying and enjoyable in equal measures. I have a bill to pay that I forgot to take with me (sparking a panic when I got home and could find neither it nor the money to pay it. Sorted now, fortunately!) And I also forgot my prescription-ordering slip to take to Boots! So I will have to go back tomorrow. 

I'd planned to get some more trousers like the ones I bought for work. I like them so much I wanted some for non-work wear too! But not only were there none of the trousers, the entire range they were part of was gone too! I will have to look online.

Whilst in town, the heavens opened and there was a huge thunderstorm. It rained so much, water was spurting up around manhole covers like fountains! Fortunately I was indoors eating my lunch at the time. I'd decided to try a new cafe. The coffee was good, if in too small a quantity (Starbucks, Costa et. al. have spoiled me on that front!) the cake was marvellous, but the place was just too pretentious and posh! I felt very out-of-place! One of the staff spent all his time droning on about his world travels - probably his Gap Yah! 

Had to buy a cheap brolly to avoid a drowning on the way home! In now and in PJ's and Dressing Gown as I'm not planning to go back out any more and my clothes were soaked!
