Morning all :hello:
I'm in, thankyou Dusty.
Have a headache this morning but I don't think it has migraine potential *touch wood* so it's time for a cuppa and some parrots-eat-'em-all. Seriously considering giving up drinking for a while to see if it helps my head, I only had one VAT last night too
I've just realised that I didn't do lunches last night for the boys; I'm my own worst enemy.
