Glossop with Helen

On the 5th of March I first of all had a long meeting with a client, and then I drove to Glossop to see my friend Helen. Lee is working in the office in Sheffield on Mondays and Wednesdays now which is really odd for me and the cats, who wander round all day looking for him. But it has meant that I have been working on Wednesdays because the house is quiet so I get lots of stuff done. My meeting went fine and then I got dressed super speedily and got in the car and started across the moors. It was a really beautiful sunny day and an absolutely gorgeous drive over, listening to a podcast on the stereo. I got to Glossop about 12.40 and parked. I was pleased to find the car park and the machine took card, too! 

Then I walked round to A'bout Thyme. Lee and I went for breakfast there in December when on the way to Manchester to see some friends, and I loved how cute it was. Glossop is about halfway between Helen and I so it was ideal. I went in and it was busy, but there would a couple of spare tables. I got one and read my book for a bit while waiting for Helen. I ordered a coffee and it was lovely - just a little bit of peace. Helen arrived just after 1pm and we chatted for a bit then ordered food. I had avocado on toast with a bunch of other stuff, and some hash browns. It was lovely! I had a cold drink with food, then afterwards we both had another cup of coffee too. I would have had some cake but they were all gone by that time! Boo!

We said goodbye and forgot to take a photo of us, which was annoying. Helen had given up social media for Lent so we had talked about that a bit. I got home in good time, still in lovely weather. But of course as Lee wasn't home when I got in there was no one to take a photo of my outfit. I will have to teach the cats to do it! It was a nice afternoon out, though. 

Lunch. I will nearly always choose avocado on toast
