The rain did not stop all day. There was flash flooding around the area, on the roads and at Poole Dolphin Shopping Centre.
So I pretty much just stayed home all day eating and on my laptop, looking at things to do at various places.
In the late afternoon I decided to take a walk down the road to Oakley Village, not far from the house. There was nothing much there, although I didn't really expect there to be. It was just that I felt that I couldn't really stay here for weeks not knowing where the closest shops were. There's basically a convenience store, a pharmacy and a butcher's, and a big car park.
The convenience store actually isn't more expensive than a supermarket, although I was expecting it to be. And it's not just like a little milk bar thing. It's actually a pretty decent size with a good range of products and some fresh food. I guess the next closest place to buy stuff is Wimborne, so the place must make some pretty good money. I bought a bar of Galaxy milk chocolate, because Sarah mentioned it the other day.
Yum.
