A quite busy end to the first month of the year as my welfare money came in, coinciding with many direct debit bills depleting it before my eyes.
I checked my mail and found excitedly that my mail-box was almost full, but only one letter was important (a bill) and the rest was outright junk mail I immediately threw out.
I had to collect my train tickets for my trip to Manchester at weekend and I stocked up on food too.
The highlight was a talk at the local community centre on the history of Morecambe Bay which I’ll review separately, but a very good free presentation indeed.

I thought I had some mail the other day and was a bit excited. But, alas only junk too. Sounds like a nice day.

Most of the mail I get in my mail box if junk these days. I don't get too much actual mail. It doesn't take money long to disappear it seems. Usually I get paid one day and the next it is pretty much gone and then I have to wait until next payday. The talk sounds like it would have been very interesting!

I liked it a lot. I used to love going to a Tywyn and then to Rhyl when I was small with my Nan. We would walk miles along the Sea Front. No Buses all walking.

I hate those days when the mailbox is jam-packed full of circulars.
