Staying Local

We've had a busy day, doing a few chores in the local area.  First was a visit to the doctor’s surgery for our annual flu jab.  The nurses were busy attending to a steady stream of patients coming in for their jabs.  No trouble at all with this, we hardly felt a thing.  We believe that the Covid vaccinations will be available to us about May, so we are looking forward to receiving them soon.

Next was a trip to the “Big Egg” to purchase our free range eggs.  While Robin was inside attending to this, I walked over to say hello to all the happy hens enjoying some time outside.  They have plenty of space to scratch around looking for bugs in the grass and dirt.  I think they were hoping I had some food scraps to toss over the fence for them.

Our last stop was at the local market “The Garden of York” to replenish our fruit and veggies.  Many of the vegetables are grown on site, and we could see lots of fresh seedlings growing nicely.  We love our fresh veggies and always purchase them here.

After all that, it was time to go back home for a cuppa.

You are fortunate to have such lovely fresh food nice and local. It’s good to have received your flu jab. We will have ours soon. Both our Mums have had the Covid jab, which is reassuring.
