    Hello all - iPad battery was flat last night and by the time it had charged up I was too tired to post. I spend all day on a computer at work and sometimes I just can't face another screen.

    November already :eek:

    Got a long list of goals for this month, at the top of which is finish the decorating, I've had enough of it now. Will post said list when I've got more time and on the laptop.

    Yesterday was NSD1/12 and also gym session 1/12 :)

    Have booked a day off at the end of November to go Christmas shopping, will go somewhere on the train not too far away, might go to Highcross Leicester again. I won't tell Mr SA, as far as he's concerned I'm in a meeting at work ;)

    Gave in and bought a load of veg from Lidl on the way home tonight, I can't wait until Saturday, only had a carrot and a potato left!
