Hi Tilly,
Just checking in!
We're just back from Cornwall (omg how much did we spend!!) and your mention of paydays has reminded me how fortunate I am in that I get a payday every Tuesday and a monthly payday on the second Wednesday of every month. I SO need this Tuesdays!!!!!
Having said we spent a lot though, it was all budgeted through YNAB so I know we had the money to start with so it doesn't feel too bad.
Hope the hounds enjoyed their walk. You've inspired me to get out a bit today. Usually I blame my hip for holding me back but if I can do a 7 mile cliff walk in Cornwall, I can manage to do one here (although the views wont be as spectacular!!)

Glorious sunny afternoon.

Hounds are going mad so we are off for another walk.
Glad you had a good time Thistle. I love Cornwall.
