Wrangled the duvet out on the line for a good air in the sun. 🌞 Hopeful I can get my friend to bring it bk in later. I am hot and diden’t sleep well last night. I have put the 6 tog duvet on the bed. It’s a different material to the one I’ve just taken off. No idea why.
The one I took off the bed has a split in it at the seam. Not impressed as Nightlark are not cheap. Now cobbled together with tiny safety pins. Not my best job.
Someone came to put weed killer down yesterday on my jungle of weeds.
My mum bought me lovely Scottish strawberries yesterday.
DS says his school is unbearably hot. It’s hotter where he is then here.I am a Forum Ambassador and I support the Forum Team on Mortgage Free Wannabe & Local Money Saving Scotland & Disability Money Matters.

I slept on top of the duvet all night last night beanielou. It must have been hot because I usually wake up cold in the night.
I like the sound of those coverless duvets, but yikes £90 for a 4.5 tog King size. I will have to make do for the moment.
Strawberries sound lovely, I haven't got the energy to go and get any sadly.
