Sounds like you need to take it easy and only do small manageable jobs today cleosmum. Hope you feel better soon and take it as easy as pos.
Friend has cancelled:rolleyes: Second time in the past month, which is rather infuriating as i had rearranged things so it fitted in with the day. Never mind, at least no spends on food out and transport, plus more time to catch up with my long list!:j Live on £4500, £2531/£4500:T 101 in 1001 (52/101):j:beer::j
