Trafford Centre. Manchester.

A very quick upload tonight as I have a very sore pulled muscle in my back which is giving me great trouble tonight & I feel pretty miserable.

I have been to the Trafford Centre with my daughter, son in law & granddaughter today so I had to post thisphoto.

It just shows I wasn't myself because I took quite a few what I thought were good pictures only to discover just now I had the camera set on low light the whole time! Rather grainy pictures as a result I'm afraid!

Please forgive me if I don't comment tonight!!!

Three good things:
1. The old freezer has been removed off the drive today...Currys came with a van.
2. A lovely day out & a bit of Christmas shopping started.
3. Krispy Kreme donuts tried for the first time today.

Oh, Christmas has really started over there! We have not gone all out yet but it won't be long now. This is the time when I start saying several times a day that I won't have a tree this year. Then, by the second week in December I succumb to the relentless hype and the cute ornaments I see in the shops.

Oo trafford centre, you're brave! Hope u feel better soon.

[Sean O'Neill]

Sorry about your back Pat, hope you're on the mend soon. KK Donuts are wonderful. We love them in this house (well Rebecca doesn't!)

[Judith Johnson]

No changing beds for you then? Did you like the donuts? We got to be fanatical about Tim Horton donuts when we lived in Canada. There are now one or two in the UK.

Great colours in this picture! Rest easy, Pat!

[Rick Schies]

Sorry to hear about your pulled muscle, take care, and hope you feel better soon

[Jane Pittenger]

So sorry re your back. Gorgeous colors and repeating shapes

[Fanny Brogden]

Oh so painful, poor you, I always lie on my hottie when my back hurts! Fabulous colours and sparkly bits!! Never tried the donuts either!!

[fife]

Sorry about your back. My oldest is having back issues too. She got some great muscle relaxers today and is on the mend. Feel better Pat!

[Jean Tookey]

Brilliant colours !. I havee not been to Manchester since my daughter was at uni. A good place to visit.

[Judith Greenwood]

Oooh no - dodgy back muscles are horrible. I recommend lying in a hot bath. And you still got a nice shot.

[SIMMY]

Oh wow very decorative, wonderful shot

[Barbara Paquette]

I love the vibrant colors in this shot...and the graininess isn't apparent. I would think that a Krispy Kreme would have cured you!

[Lesley Knowles]

Love this pic Mum! x x x

[Vicki Dixon]

very pretty blues!

[Paul]

just gorgeous Pat, wonderful colours

[Peggy Sirk]

Well, I found out the source of your pain and frustration...I hate that you are having problems with your back, Pat!! Bless your heart. I know that must be an awful thing. I hope that as I'm reading this five days later, that you are beginning to feel much better. Take care of yourself! You do so much for others that I fear you sometimes neglect Pat.
What did you think of your first Krispy Kreme donut? I love them...but only when they are fresh and hot. :)

[Juliette Packham]

it's got a mysterious feel to it Pat and that dark nights, coloured lights that we get at Christmas time. Sorry to hear your back is playing up - hope it is better now...not much of a Krispy Kreme fan myself - far too sweet and heavy for me!!

[Pat Knowles]

@peggysirk @sparkle Thank you both you lovely girls, much better now, have sore back but it's my lungs the problem & pretty sure the doctor will tell me tomorrow I have pleurisy. Pain is gripping & moves round to my side & under bust so all the lung area. Loads better, no treatment just rest & pain killers.
