Have thought about a second hand fridge. It’s then the problem of picking it up ect.

Anyway. In much nicer news a local person was awarded the BEM in the honours announced recently.
Well deserved 😊

It’s lovely to hear about local people getting recognised. I was pleased to see the choices of this years awards. It usually annoys me with a majority of celebs but this time they’ve really recognised those who’ve tried to make a difference during this COVID crisis.

Sorry to hear of the fridge saga beanie. ☹️ Hope you manage to get things sorted.
Nice to hear about the local person's award. Agree that it's good to see some really deserving people receding awards this year.

Not the best.
My falling this week is just totally off the scale & I had to crawl back to the car yesterday as I could not get up.
It is what it is.
