    Habi sorry I meant to say I do cook separate meals.

    Maybe I shouldn't?

    Not actual 'tents' but a 'barn' .... have not got a sleeping bag so need to borrow one from someone! Seem to have left it a bit late to do that tho Mr Watty believes there is one in the loft and says we will look this evening.
    Made it to mortgage free but what a muddle that became

    In the event the proverbial hits the fan then co-habitees are better stashing their cash than being mortgage free !!

  • Morning Alchemilla, time at the yards sounds great. You and MWC have made me want an apple and blackberry pie after dinner tonight :)
