    How annoying that premium bonds results won’t be out till Tuesday. Was all set up to check them today!! Lol. 

    Our new energy supplier is offering smart meters so we took them up on that and it’s being fitted this week!

    I was disappointed when I checked and they said there was 3 days to go. Hoping the wait is worth it!
