Glad to hear Master J is better, beanie - and that laminate looks lovely, I've seen that kind of thing - I've got a lot of vinyl myself, in sort of tile pattern, not floorboard pattern. It's so useful! I hope your budgets will stand the strain of the coming weekend - you deserve it

I like your flooring Beanie, I have something similar in my kitchen and looking to replace the carpet in my living room and hall too. Much more practical with animals (and I'm including my kids in there as well as the cats 🤣).
Good that Master J is a bit better, hope he continues to perk up.Success is not final, failure is not fatal: it is the courage to continue that counts. Car loan 1 £10,345, Car loan CC 0% BT £4900. Debt Free Diary to try & keep spending in check.8 -
