Out and about today.

Good evening. Another letter arrived from the TV Licensing Company today. I have got quite a collection now. Once again they are asking if I am watching the telly and if so, I need to get a licence. They say I must contact them before the end of October. I have phoned them before, and all you get is an automated recorded message, press 1 for this, and 2 for that, etc. I can't be bothered any more. 

I've been out and about today. Go to the Post Office and pay my Severn Trent water bill. £28.04. This is for surface water and highway drainage, for half a year. There will be another bill coming from Anglian Water who supplies the clean water. Again for half a year. It will be slightly more than this one. 

Then off I went to the phone shop in the big Tesco. They tell me 3g will soon be turned off, so I need a new phone which will receive 4g. The young man in there was ever so helpful.There were two cheap phones to choose from. I paid £32, which I thought was ok. It's got a few more features than my Nokia, but I shall ever only use it for calls and texts. He transferred all my numbers over to the new phone, and the price included a free £10 top up. So goodbye Nokia, you have served me well over a lot of years. 

I thought I might do a bit of shopping while I was there. I never go in Tesco now I don't need the yellow stickers. It was flippin freezing in there. The store is far too big, full of crap you don't need. The non food section is massive. I almost had a panic attack, let me out of here. I quickly grabbed some sliced chicken for the cats and I was gone. Not hanging around. 

Next I went to the Retail Park. The Range to get the cat food. Then Home Bargains for some more cat food and a few other things. 

I've just put the central heating on for an hour. Feeling a bit chilly. One hedgehog on the garden tonight, so far. It's a young one who prefers wet cat food. 

Thanks for popping in. Have a good weekend. Toodle pip.   ilona
