Got caught up in the four way traffic lights on the way, glad I know a few short cuts so not to sit in them too long!
Those dark clouds don't look good!
Now to have a look around some charity shops.
First one had vinyl records...
DVDS...

A unicorn, which I bought!
Next Charity Shop had a nice crochet blanket for sale.
Then as I bought it, everyone was talking about each other's level of crocheting!
I am a true beginner I said.
At least the blanket will keep me warm in the winter!
Nice shoes pity they are not my size!
One charity shop had a Minion I didn't own,
Then they had another for sale!
Nice flowers for sale.
Got some bits from Waitrose.
