SHE
SAID:
We
are slowly getting our stuff out of the van & into the house; it
always takes a couple of days. Things we have forgotten, or decide we
now need.
With
groceries required we headed into Armidale for a short look around &
to get our supplies. Armidale is about 10kms north of Arding.
Our
afternoon & evening was quiet, with the feeding of the 2 ponies,
Merrylegs & Winsome, one of the must-do tasks! Not having had much
to do with ponies/horses before this is a novel experience!
Miss
Puss is still a little wary of us, but came in around 5pm &
curled up on the chair; close but not too close to us!

Prices are noticeably dearer here. Even dearer than Canberra, which has high prices on lots of things because of a perception of higher incomes. Anyway, Armidale district fuel is anything from 5c to 10c a litre dearer than even 100km down the road. And the groceries were rather dear too. It is no wonder that Aldi is doing very well in Australia. We always notice the savings, once we recognise what we need to buy from the labels we are not used to.
