Shopping, Cooking and a Thunderstorm

The heading summarises the day ....We shopped in the morning at both Woolworths and Coles, the two major supermarket chains. Woollies didn't have the yoghurts, cheese (they don't know about real vintage cheddar) and chopped bacon and we managed to get something that looked like sausagemeat at last. The young man just took the skins off some sausages for us!! The previous 'sausage mince' was horribly pink and smooth.
Sara and Mike went out shopping after lunch, Harry had friend Calum round and Josh taught Pam how to play table tennis on the Wii. She wants one now. I cooked an enormous mound of shepherd's pie base, Sara requested it for to-morrow night plus a second lot for the freezer. I needed several drinks during and after, despite a huge thunderstorm it was still hot for me. Josh was eager to play cards but I went to shower and cool off a while first. I also packed some presents.
To-night is another entertaining packing performance from Sara and the boys. Harry's writing and Josh is on sticking duty to-night. In the middle of it all, Josh got up and hula hooped in his favourite Lionel Messi shorts. Can't remember how to remove red-eye.

Looking forward to an outing to Bribie Island to-morrow, fingers crossed that it's dry in the morning.
