    No notebook.
    It seems to have dissapeared into thin air :(
    Even checked the recyclying bucket.

    Pain levels still not good. Makes me feel sick when it is this bad.
    Such is life.

    When did you last see your notebook? Retrace your steps. Hope you find it.

    Sorry to hear things aren't great at the minute :( Hope it picks up soon.

    Keep shuffling xx

    Has the notebook resurfaced yet? And, more importantly, do you feel any better today?

    Take care xx

  • Glad you had a nice celebration and I agree with Karmacat, raspberry gin sounds a winner. Off to google it

    Glad DS had a nice birthday. We bought some Spanish pink gin back from Ibiza, it's gorgeous. Hoping they sell it in Lanzarote as we've about run out!

    Good news on the bargain top :)
