I Had A Few Things To Do Today,

whilst Diana was at work,

 so off out of the park,

 on the grass verges, the first of the white cherry trees was flowering,

 and the magnolia in this garden was putting on a good show,

 the small one in the garden of the Foxgrove Lodge was also in bud,

 I caught the bus to Kingfisheries, 

 as I wanted some aquatic fertilizer,

I decided on the  API Leaf Zone,

 whilst there I had a look at some of the aquarium ornaments,

 the neoclassical look is just not me,

 next stop nearly opposite the church, a call into the cash machine, along to the convenience store to top up one of Diana's travel cards, shopping in Marks and Spencer, then call into the dry cleaners to pick up one of Diana's jackets, next home, 

 and wait for Diana to arrive home from work, as it was still early evening Diana decided on a chicken massaman, although I do not normally have a drink on a Tuesday, as we were sitting at the table, 'Cheers!',

delicious, and it made a nice change for a Tuesday evening, after a couple of quiz shows it was feet up for tonight's film,

Life of Pi, stunning sets and filming, the near opening swimming pool scene so surreal, but so stunning, as it happens Pi's childhood takes place in Pondicherry, which is a real place in India, but unlike the film, the town lacks a zoo, so far, we rounded the evening off with a couple from Mrs. Browns Boys, and then for us we were off to bed.

We Were Out Of Water,

for our marine aquarium,

 so off to the shop past the church, but first,

 a look into the town hall, as an exhibition was being held there,

 by the Beckenham Photographic Society, what a treat, so many stunning photographs, it put my humble efforts to shame!

 on to the bus stop, The Cosy Kitchen now up and running, I called into Kingfisheries Aquarium and picked up the RO water we use to top up the aquarium and home I went,

 in the evening a sherry,

 followed by my evening meal and a few glasses of red,

as I read a few more chapters of Lanark by Alasdair Gray, whilst listening to music,

towards midnight Diana called, so a walk to the bus stop, returning home it was feet up for a coffee and for us next we were off to bed.

Diana Was At Work,

I was off into town to visit the dentist, 

and for our weekend shopping, passing Beckenham Green, in the churchyard I spotted them,

a few in the distance,

 and closer,

 a few clumps of them, snowdrops, the first of the year, spring is on the way!, 

 a quick visit, crown reglued and I was on my way, 

 to Sainsburys, returning home it was feet up for a coffee, then a nice treat, Steve called, he had seen some Altum angelfish at Kingfisheries and wondered if I would like to join him, as he was driving to the shop, I did not need asking twice!

 decisions, decisions, which of the ones on offer to buy?

 Graham caught the three Steve decided on, 

 this is one of them,

 whilst the fish were being packed,

 I had a look around the shop,

 the plant and gravel selection,

and some of the dry goods, Steve kindly dropped me off home, where later Diana was home from work, after our evening meal, Steve called round and we spent the evening chatting away, after he left it was for us time to be off to bed.
