During my nightly call to mum last night she mentioned she wanted to go into town sometime this week, and this morning when it was frosty, but sunny, I thought, well, at least its not raining. I called her, and shortly after 10am we were in town looking at DVD's in HMV! I got Ladryinth and Moon on blu-ray, and mum got Morcombe and Wise. I also ordered "Mary Queen of Scots" which is a very rare dvd of the 1972 film starring Vanessa Redgrave. I have checked it before on ebay but the prices are so very high for it, because its rare, that I decided to ask how much it would be to order, and it was a reasonable £16!! But I wont get it for 2 weeks, oh well.....Next we had a wander down to home-bargins and TK Maxx, and I must have had my shopping head on as I spent rather much more than I had bargined for!! Now mum has on-going problams with her feet and back so she is always on the lookout for super comfortable shoes. Me on the other hand was delighted to find some "Croc's" walking shoes, for taking Sirius out. I have been looking for these for ages, and prices seemed a bit high on ebay so I was delighted fo find them for a steal at £15. Mum was sat resting on a seat in the shoe section and I came back and plonked my Croc's in the basket.
"Crikey! Those look comfortable!! and they are so light weight! have they got my size?" she asked.
I scoured the shelves for mum's size 6 (I am a 4) and after several minuits I found a pair, which she tried on and was delighted with. So I treated her!! Not content with just treating Mum to some Croc's I began looking for a size 10!! Dereks size!! Now I am very carefull when buying shoes for Derek because he is an awkward size 9 and a half! So I ususally look for a ten. I found some and bought them for him. Fortunatly they fitted perfectly, and he was very pleased. So that joke of the day was, me, mum and Derek are all OLD CROC'S!!
Later on at about 1pm, mum and I had lunch at her favorite cafe!
When Derek picked us up from the market square, we went on to Morrisons, where Derek found "Rogers and Hammerstien" musicals collection and decided to treat mum to it......At this point I wondered if he was feeling quite well??? When mum got out of the car back at her home she joked. "A new pair of shoes and a dvd box set....I am coming out with you again!!"
