Countdown to Freedom

Morning, dogs walked and what happy creatures they were, although difficult to see in the dark. It allowed Mr T and I to have time to catch up as we have hardly seen each other this week. Two more work days to go and then I'm off :T
Sadly no spare pennies in the account to OP :eek: not even 1p, just tidy £.
Have another pile of stuff sorted to eb@y when I get back. Just need a free listing day. Also going to fit in one more car boot sale depending upon the weather, before the end of November. The combination of these activities will either clear the remaining clutter, or it will go to the CS.
Have a great day and hope the cold spell hasn't hit you.

We splashed out and bought glow in the dark collars so we can see them at all times
it was a little extravagant @ £14 each, however the younger one has a tendancy to go exploring, which i always worry about when we are walking them in the dark as i can't see her :eek: to know if she has gone 'exploring'.

Not that I'm wishing my life away of course. A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort Mortgage Balance = £0

GG, we could be doing a roaring trade with paying guests
Sadly I won't be out there quite so soon, but will have the money to travel whenever the muse takes us.
