Spent the day in town window shopping and walking around. We started in the main street checking out the various boutiques and not so boutique chain stores with a quick side trip to the post office to donate to their profits.
Time out for lunch at yet another pleasant and very popular eatery. They have a lovely concept. All the tables have the white damask tableclothes which in turn are covered with white card type paper and right there in the middle of the table next to the salt and pepper is a container full of ......CRAYONS.
Children of all ages are encouraged to draw on the 'tablecloth' which keeps them amused and sitting at the table without the running amok you often see at the more popular cafes. A clever and inovative idea. When each group leave they can take their 'tabletop' with them or leave it to be binned by the cheerful staff who replace it with a fresh piece for the next setting. Many groups lunch here and it is popular for birthdays and work farewells as each person can write a personal message for the guest of honor on the table.
We then went into the local mall and began a dedicated zig zag pattern from store to store, which of course left us thirsty and hungry so it was back to the lunch cafe for a pot of tea and toblerone cheesecake!
Home in time to cook dinner for the returning workforce.
Tomorrow may be stay at home day, perhaps a little housework and washing, but then again maybe.........
