A random assortment

We've been to Whitby today. It was a good trip in some ways. We went to Humble Pie again for dinner, which was delicious. We went there on our last trip and were looking forward to going again. It's this tiny little place done up to look like someone's front room in WW2 era and you eat out of tin plates, the only choices being a selection of pies, mash and peas.
Walking around was easy, I even got up some really steep banks I wouldn't have attempted last year. But the crowds spoiled things. We should have known better really. It's the tail end of the school holidays and no doubt lots of people were out having day trips. The streets of Whitby are very narrow and cobbled, so having so many people there meant you couldn't move fast or where you wanted to go, and often stopping to look in windows caused a block for people trying to get past. It was just all kinds of frustrating, and very humid, too. In the end we just left early.
James got his new red leg yesterday. He was a bit dubious going in as nanna had questioned his choice of red, but it looks great. You can see it here on his Insta. Of course he wanted to wear it as soon as we got home -- they won't let people wear legs out of the hospital in case they don't fit right at first -- so wore it to the scout hut on the night. Then came back and said it didn't feel right. But he's not sure if it's a not feel right just because it's new or because of an actual fit issue, so the old one is back on now. Though I have to admit, I got really annoyed this morning when I couldn't change his boot from the red leg to the black one, then realised I was trying to put on the wrong boot. Sigh. You'd think I could tell the difference between left and right by now.
Bake Off was back last night. I was very happy about that.
And talking of TV shows. I've started to watch Killjoys, and really, a show set in space with actual bros, a kickass lady and adventures. Why did I not start watching earlier. Though, like many of you I'm sure, I always get the mental urge to say 'make some noise' every time someone mentions Killjoys. I hope that wears off soon.
I'm ending with a Self-Knowledge Questionnaire![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
aweeghost linked too. The results were ( pretty interesting and accurate. )
