    Congrats on the i/view fedup
    Mudbath, joining you late for the second HHC. Getting some food in might not be a bad idea given that I have ignored food shopping lately and we are running out of most things.

    Am just going to do my HHI...stuff that was washed and dried testerday but wanted to ask a quick question, does any body do their banking online, and how safe is it...AnW'smum, do you have any advice....or anyone that uses online banking.....Thanks.....ironing, here I come xx

    Hi Just back from work and catching up as dinner cooks, wanted to answer this now before I forget!

    I use online banking all the time and due to swapping my accounts I have used lots of different bank websites all without problem. So long as you do the obvious eg up to date AV, checking you are on https sites (padlock bottom left of window), make sure you don't ever discuss/disclose details to a cold caller/email then you should be ok. NEVER click a link in an email the bank sends you (there are a lot of phisihing emails out there, usually given away by the terrible grammar/spelling), open a new browser window and navigate to the page from the bank home page. Don't use a public computer to log in and make sure no one else has access to your passwords/secret info etc. HTH

    Evening all

    Busy day here. Went on the Year 1 school trip to help out a teacher and then had swimming.

    Step count is surprising low 4966 considering how tired I am.

    Mudbath - did they swab for SF?

    MSG - congrats on your job

    Natty - big hugs. Please don't feel you have to carry on with the counselling if it is too painful, now might not be the right time for you to deal with all this.

    Soappie - congrats to your DiL. Like the number of steps from the pc to the kettle but don't forget to add in all the extra trips to the loo

    Mudbath - I'd wear both meters walk (and count) 100 steps at a brisk pace and see which is correct.

    Must do a HHC in the kitchen, kids in the garden but quite scabbley so might not be out there for long.
