No Café Here

We've had an exciting day, a trip to the Swindon Designer Outlet. We both bought some M&S pyjamas.

My blip is the National Trust Heelis office which is opposite the main shopping centre entrance. I've tagged it for Wide Wednesday. Modern looking but not exactly recent. It was designed in 2005, an architectural gem which uses timber from the NT woodlands and wool from Herdwick sheep grazed on the NT farmlands.

I've no idea where the wool comes in. You can't go inside. It looks just like a café as you can see lots of people eating and drinking at tables. Staff I guess as there is a blackboard sign outside which says There is no café or shop here! 

The sign goes on to suggest you visit another NT property, specifically Avebury or Lacock. Or why not just pop into Pizza Express opposite (you may be able to make out the reflection of their logo in the window) or one of the other eateries in the outlet centre. We had a KFC, mrsfb's request.

On the way home we stopped at a Sainsbury's nearby to get a few things we can't get from Ocado. After successfully managing the M&S self service tills, even buying some bags, we failed miserably in Sainsbury's. We had to wait for assistance three times to deal with errors.

I didn't take my tripod to the fair this week, so didn't do any long exposure shots like this.
