We're off on a jolly

[JanB]

tomorrow

Decided we need stuff can't get here, so off we go to Algarve shopping

Looking for some voile curtains for the new bedroom, lots of loverly bangers, bacon, proper cheese and the steak pies our Grumps likes.

Also, to et a new sim card for the old (14 years) phone. Just something for him to have when he's out and I'm in. or t'other way around. We got one from meo, but if you don't use the money within a month they keep it and then the blasted phone is useless, so it's vodaphone for us.

Looking forward to having mooch, although Grumpy is not a happy shopper You have to get him here, then he enjoys it ish But this is his suggestion, so hoping for a good day.

Sounds like a lovely day planned Jan have a lovely day and a spend

Enjoy; hope you find everything you're looking for x Poor Grumpy will deserve a pit stop at the bar on the way home

No pit stop, had too many frozen things, now safely stored in the freezers I still need to find room for the bacon and bangers but I'll do that tomorrow.

Seriously underwhelmed by Algarve shopping but we did get himself a new phone. I'll have a play with that tomorrow and get it sorted for him.

Also bought him 3 white t-shirts and 2 white polo shirts. I got a pair of pincers for the bbq, the curtains I wanted and something for the pool

No roses in the garden centre , but we did manage to spend 168€ in Iceland

Steak pie for dinner

Sounds like a productive trip

It was Kaz - but seriously, that much in Iceland????

We always make them laugh in there, as we buy so much of certain things. The guy behind us was asking if we only eat curry, as we had 12 jars of curry sauce. Every time we go, we have to explain that we live an hour away, so load up twice a year.

But that Algarve shopping centre maybe it's because we're not used to shopping malls. Massive, confusing

[JanB]

And the whole place was full of English, Dutch and Germans.

Not going back, only to Iceland. Wizz in and out.
