    Morning All

    DD woke me up at 3.50 and I didn't manage to get back to sleep after that. I've been up for a bit but haven't managed to actually do anything yet. I feel like going back to bed so I may do that a bit later.

    Only thing planned for today is to go and meet my new niece after dinner so not sure if we'll do anything else or not.

    I'll join you in a bit macpep.

    Have a good day all

    Hugs
