In the present.

We went to Cowbridge this morning, and it was mayhem, although you wouldn't believe it by the  look of  my blip.When we got to the car park,  it was full, so we drove around a few times, but it was useless.  J  decided to  try  at the other  end of the town.,  and we  did find a space, but it was only for an hour, but still better than nothing.  I saw some lovely bobble hats in one of the shops, so I went in and asked how much they were. The assistant said, £79,99, but  the bobbles are interchangeable, and you can buy a spare one for £29,99. My face must have been a picture, and no, i didn't buy one. We then went to the Cancer Research charity shop, and J saw a boxed set of dvd's, called, Glory Days of British Steam. There are 10 discs, and it cost £10, so obviously, he bought them. We wanted to go for a coffee, but we would have been longer than an hour, so instead, we bought two pasties from Greggs, and ate them in the car. A bit of a come down, but there you go!   I don't know what was going in on in Cowbridge today, but the traffic was at standstill all the way through the town. Luckily for us, J knew a shortcut, so we drove straight home. This afternoon, we took the Advent calendar down to our g/daughter, which we have done since she was tiny. It costs me a fortune to fill the pockets, but she loves it.
