To be fair to DS he thought it was £5500(!!) & not £550. He wasent saying it was too expensive for me to buy, just that he thought it was expensive.milann said:Just been catching up. I’m pleased your mum is on the mend.
What kind of blankets do the cats need…..would a knitted or crocheted one be of any use or does it need to be a particular material so the claws don’t get snagged?
Ds has no right to suggest what you spend your money on or not. You NEED the walker. Glad the cash is spent and it’ll keep you as steady as possible 👏👏👏and boost your confidence to keep getting out there. Don’t let anyone tell you what you need…..they’re not walking in your shoes. You know you best 👍👍👍👍I’m gutted that the coffee and gift shop has closed. It was your favourite place and quite special. I’ll be very surprised if there isn’t another opening somewhere as it’s such a beautiful area…..and us tourists need somewhere to go too 👍👍
Yes, I am sad about AG,, it was lovely & the staff were lovely & the food was good

Brilliant that the walker has arrived and feels good. Worth every penny. Hope it helps a lot."Good financial planning is about not spending money on things that add no value to your life in order to have more money for the things that do". Eoin McGee3
