Hello, Elle!
I think your Sainsbury delivery is a sound idea.
Be interesting to hear how it goes.
"Wonder Woman" Mikaela has won again!
Petra Vlhova in second and Michelle Gisin third.
Great competition.
Tricky conditions, too.
Icy for the first part, then snow on the bottom part, and a very steep course.

Hi, Rusty!
I have had a wander down to the High Street......yes, to Sainsbury's!..... in search of some fruit.
We are down to just oranges and plums!
The shelves were still surprisingly empty of fresh produce...... perhaps hordes of ravenous folk had descended upon the store before I got there!
I bought some grapes and cherries. and a few other bits and bobs.
I looked at my receipt to check on the Nectar points, since you were asking about their worth.
As of now, we have over 13, 000 points, , giving us £68 - 60 to spend!
So yes, I think this is well worth having?
There is no cut-off date. either, so the money can be accumulated and spent when we wish.
Right, we have not yet had any lunch.......
So I am now about to make some sandwiches and heat up the tomato soup!

Good evening, Elle!
That's quite a tidy sum you have earned from your Nectar points!
Just been watching Christmas Who Wants To Be A Millionaire,
Very entertaining!
I think the series restarts in the new year some time.

Good evening, Rusty!
Are you still liking Jeremy Clarkson as host of "Millionaire"?
I was unsure when I once watched it......but perhaps he "grows" on you?
I was pleased to hear that both "The Voice :UK" and "Cold Feet" are shortly coming back...
I enjoy both these programmes.
Three of the coaches on "The Voice" remain the same....Will.i.am; Sir Tom Jones ; and Olly Murs.
With Megan Trainor replacing Jennifer Hudson.
Do you know Megan Trainor?
I have never heard of her?

Hi, Rusty!
You would know James Nesbitt though, I am sure, who is in Cold Feet.
One of my favourite programmes.
I have no cousin to phone tonight, as she is away with one of her daughter's and family, for a few days over the New Year.
I hope they have good weather...dry, if nothing else!
No wind here.....
Cold and sunny forecast for tomorrow.

Hello, Elle!
I know of James Nesbitt, the actor, but I don't know Cold Feet.
Is it a television programme?
It is dry here, but quite windy.
Nothing desperate, but it's blowing!

Hi, Rusty!
The sun is still shining!
I have had a quiet morning, but am feeling somewhat rejuvenated now, so may do some tasks!
I have a number of outstanding small jobs that I should... and will!... ......tackle!!
I also have to make a few phone calls on behalf of my husband to postpone or cancel commitments that he cannot keep, whilst he is unwell.
These things cannot be helped, I am sure people will understand.
You were asking about "Cold Feet".
Yes it is a television series of long standing; the first episode was shown in Series One in 1997.
And it continued for a long time , until about (if my calculations are correct) 2008.
It was resurrected last year, ten years on in the participants' lives.
I have watched it from the beginning....James Nesbitt is great in the programme.
