THINGS I AM GRATEFUL FOR:
- Michel Roux Jr on TV

- White wine also needs decluttering

- Jackdaws in my garden. They're a bit :eek: but glad to see a different bird

- 6 sleeps till holiday (well, 6 for Mr GG, probably 5 for me as I never sleep when I need to get up really early
) 
- Making roasted butternut squash for dinner

Mortgage-free: January 2021
Retired: June 2022 (186 months early!)0 - Jackdaws in my garden. They're a bit :eek: but glad to see a different bird
