Rubbish about the falls and banking agro. I use Halifax on line (I won’t have any banking app on my phone as it scares me in case I loose it) and it’s a really easy website with sensible security procedures I can actually remember……👍

Hope you’re feeling better after your rest. I’ve got my flu jab this week, need to check if it’s Tuesday or Wednesday.
The ring sounds lovely. Glad you got something for yourself. It’s so easy to let birthday gifts go into the household pot.January spends - £587.583 -

I can’t remember the last time I had money for my birthday, probably when my mum was still alive 21 years ago. I buy my own present from Mr SA, bottle of wine from DS and bottle of gin from DD.I get knocked down but I get up again (Chumbawamba, Tubthumping)3
