And it started so well! Gpa had bought button mushrooms and bacon for breakfast with nice ciabata homemade loaf toast. Granny was detailed to take H in to Town on the bus to buy Fish for a Gpa Special Fish Pie, and other bits and pieces; as well as taking back to M&S a dressing gown I had bought but wanted to return.
Raced up to the bus stop wth H. and at 10.05 realised I had everything BUT the dressing gown! Not daring to toddle back to the house, I phoned Gpa who raced up the road faster than he had run for years with the bag! Guess what? Bus didn't come until 10.F'ing 30. Checked with the Bus Info Kiosk what time for return bus to La Moye ... "15 and 45 past the hour"
Anyway did the Fish shop and M&S and the supermarket, where Harry asked 50 times to my deaf ears "I want some water".
Back by 11.45 to the terminus and a Bus 7 is boarding - so we get on, only to horror when bus turns left up Market St. Ask a friendly couple who are sitting next to us, to look at their Bus Timetable and realise we've got on the WRONG bus. Round the Island we trundle, past Airport, The Impwerial at Pleinmont, the Cup and Saucer, Cobo Bay and end up at Grandes Roques with no other bus to take us home. I was upset with myself for getting it wrong .... and Gpa and Brian had to come to our rescue.
Anyway, we bought fresh crab on the way home for super sandwiches and in the late afternoon had a jacuzzi, before Sharm came around for the fabulous Fishy Pie.
Bedtime after a Skype chat and that is that!! Airport tomorrow.
