Kangaroo Steaks For Tea?

I needed to take my nebuliser back to get another one...was glad to get rid of it actually because it was horribly noisy...couldn't hear yourself think! So we went into Roscommon town to the stores, which is a tiny little office on a scruffy industrial estate...all pot-holes and empty properties...the girl handed over a new and shiny nebuliser and a years supply of masks and sort of slung the one I was handing in under the counter...

Lidl's isn't far from there so we went to see if there were any bargains to be had...the freezers were full of goodies...Kangaroo steaks...lumps of Ostrich...a haunch of Wild Boar...Hare fillets and dear little Quail. Himself was very keen on trying some Kangaroo but I dissuaded him because I don't know how they're murdered in order for people to eat them...

So we bought a few packets of nuts and some Turkish Delight...

And, after my recent Bah Humbug over the whole Christmas scenario, I found a set of five miniature houses that light up with those LED lights...and I put them in the trolley with the excuse they'd light the sitting room up a bit...

We've arranged them on a shelf on the dresser and they do look very nice... even if I say so myself and I don't care if they're a bit sort of tacky either...

I was knackered after all the excitement of seeing Kangaroo for sale and my oxygen was beeping loudly every time I drew a breath...it's only started to do that since the truly gorgeous Malachi came out and fixed the condenser thingy...so we came home.
