    I've been tidying and searching for things to throw away in the Great Declutter While The Great Clutterer Is In Hospital. And then I meal-planned Christmas, created a shopping list and ordered everything but the fresh fruit/veg from Tesco complete with £5 Quidco and £10 WYS £50 code.

    Lunch: Soup and bread
