So glad you posted sukey. It's such a lovely day and I'm very tempted but determined to do 4 straight days as I know it won't be happening next week
Well done for making it 4 straight days Maman - Thursday is normally my 'wobble' day but I have managed two weeks in a row now which is good for me
. Like you, I may not manage it next week as I have a couple of evenings out and I am definitely back on the weekend wine tonight 
Have a great weekend everyone :cool:0 -
