That was Halloween
After watching the fireworks on the downs on Saturday, we headed home and got dressed up for fancy dress Suspecies, which I'd been looking forward to for a while. It was pretty good fun, but not many people turned up (it seems most of town was pretty dead) and only a handfull bothered with fancy dress. Ah well, at least my Ash costume got an airing.
Sunday we cooked, lots. Becky did mexican hotpot and a sunday roast, then later I cooked a beef and veg stew, with extra veg and more veg (super healthy) with a good helping of red wine in there. while that was bubbling away, I set about making a chicken, leek and mushroom pie from the remains of the roast chicken. The house still smells of nice food.
Looks like it may be another expensive month with a car repair and service, follwed by £600 worth or roof repairs to my place. Just as well we've got a lot of food in as I don't think I'll be spending much else!
