    Well done MWC, a great month :T
    A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort

    Thanks GG & Tilly

    I'm just watching 3 squirrels playing in a tree - squirrels are cute when they're not trashing my loft!

    As the sun is shining I shall make a start on my February miles and walk into town to pay in those coins and then on to the RM sorting office to collect a parcel and the supermarket :)

    Eggs IN 3
    Eggs OUT 2 (1 fried for Mr MWC hangover cure + 1 used to make oat & raisin cookies)

    Today has been a spendy day...

    £34 in Mr S but this did include £4.50 on a fitted double sheet (sale) and 3 large bottles of Ariel gel for £10 :T

    Very pleased with the sheet - it's near-as-dammit the same colour as the JL sheet I put my foot through last week... and I thought that it was Mr MWC who suffered from restless leg syndrome :rotfl:

    I've also ordered a mindfulness book + CD using Amazon vouchers :)
