(They used to have a good one with turkey and cranberry sauce, but I haven't seen it in a couple of years. Maybe it's just not available in England.)<br /><br />Anyway, glad you got all that stuff done.

However, I did drive the six miles to town, get $110 worth of groceries, ferry one son from his brother's house across town to his own group home (he has cerebral palsy and walks with elbow crutches, so it would take him forever to walk there himself even though it's only about seven blocks), drop off the recycling, drive home again and haul all the bags of groceries in before slicing potatoes and carrots into fries and putting them into the oven for supper. And now: a nice glass of relaxy wine.
