thought I'd check in with my list. Am currently working on my book list, have read 2 off of there. Going to order another from the library. Am also listening to new bands & have begun to start learning portuguese again - its sooooo hard! I think it'll take me years to just get a spattering...
oh have also realised I can't put music on my sat nav but I have recently learn how to put music/podcasts on my ipod (ds and oh always did it before) so have ticked that off. Another £2 :beer:DF as at 30/12/16
