"adventure" tomorrow

I'm trekking over to Bennett's Green tomorrow to get a replacement element for the stove from the Electrolux shop. Been there and done that before. Long trip, simple transaction, and then a return back to Charlestown and whenever. Don't have a price for an element yet but it may be $80 or more (that seems about what it cost before). This is the second time this has been replaced.  Ho Hum. Might do something in Charlestown on the way back. Last time I went out that I bought a cordless phone at Bing lee on special. Nowadays you can get two of them for the same price.

My foot and knee are better, but after today's drudge of running around shopping and carting trolley around I'm not keen to go too far out of my way. However, a replacement element means I can stir-fry again, so I DO need to get it. Hopefully this time around it won't wipe out my house's electrics when I replace the bloody thing.
