Evening all!!
I am so sorry I have been absent. It's been a manic couple of weeks, with my parents staying for a week and then catching up at work & going to a hen night last night.
Happy to be checking in at the end of the mon th with a grand total of 17 NSD's though. Much better than I expected! Parents trip was quite thrifty in all and so NSD's I wasn't expecting were gathered!
Hope you all had a lovely couple of weeks. See you in July
