    Just checking in to say hi. Home a bit early for me as I had a drs appointment, though I was in work at 7.45am so I think I deserved to leave early!

    DH picked up on my text hint about eating out tonight so yay. Now I just have to persuade him he wants curry rather than pizza express as I really fancy that! I'm heading off for a quick shower now before we go.

    I will do some flying tomorrow morning as i'm working from home. lots to catch up on!
