    Was really good.
    Think the new series starts fairly soon.

    Not as relaxing as I would have liked.
    Catching up on yet more charity paperwork & lots of shredding:eek:

    Need to check how long I need to keep the important paperwork.
    Think it is 6 years.

    I really really need to stop eating crap:o:o

    Dident sleep well & then slept in :(

    My back is still in agony sadly & I have just been to the physio :(
    Jeez, things are so hard going at the moment.
    I have just ordered a new lumbar roll which was quite expensive on the physio's recommendation.

    Our greatest worry at the moment is the difficulty I am having going from sitting to standing which is quite difficult & becoming more of a problem. No easy answers.
    Had a mars bar to commiserate :(

    Oh Beanie - just gentle hugs and well wishes heading your way. Could you get some ready meals in as a standby for days you aren’t up to cooking. Then you can ping and ding in minutes.
