    It has been lovely even in Scotland! I thank your Dad!

    Got another voucher this morning :) up to £30 now.

    I've asked him to keep it sunny all week ;).

    Well done on the voucher :T.

    Lovely sunny day again - thanks Dad :A. Got my legs out of winter storage. Maybe I should have got them out yesterday and the guys at Kwik Fit might have reversed the car out for me :D. I'll try it next time ;).

    Off round my sister's in a bit. She is going to feed me today. Think my mum asked her to cook for me a few times before she went on holiday. She never thinks I eat properly.

    Have a great day everyone.

    And the good weather continues :D.

    I had a good afternoon yesterday, although I walked to the school to pick my niece up with my sister and wore some new sandals (from last year, not a recent purchase) and now I have massive blisters on my feet. I do fortunately have a pair of well worn sandals that don't kill me when I wear them.

    So I've just come back from dropping OH off and checking that my mum's flat is still standing and now I'm staying in for the rest of the day. I've got my big balcony door open to let the lovely weather in the flat. I'm hoping my feet will thank me tomorrow ;).

    Put £10 petrol in last night. That car seems to be going through petrol like there's no tomorrow at the moment. Another good reason to stay in today. Can't wait to get my new economical diesel, although at this rate, I'll be lucky to get it before Christmas.

    That's the frustrating part Lou, it is actually at the dealership, but it's a brand new model that isn't on the Motability database yet, so they can't let me have it as they can't do all the computer stuff. It has been sat there for about a month now :(.

    I have done, so has the guy at the dealership. All we get is 'it will be put on the system shortly'. At least I still have my other car anyway.
