    Hurrah. Only 24 hours to go and then hols for me. I can't afford to travel far so I will have a staycation. During my staycation I will do the following:
    • List all excess clothes on fleabay weekend one and two
    • List v expensive clothes on Aesop's recommended sites
    • Put all of my upstairs notes into order week one and two
    • Bring home all folders round my desk and sort out into order week 3
    • Make garden lovely week one and on going
    • Get healthy and go for a few walks to the beach at least twice a week
    • Keep buying lottery cards so I can get rich and not have to go back to work when I feel lucky
    • Prepare work stuff in case I don't win lottery after a big break
    Aiming for a minimal spend 2022

    I would buy a house, a new car and probably move further up the country away from London. X

    Susan and the boys drove me back late last night. We had a day in London (glorious hot weather 26 degrees) some wonderful food and boat trip and Olympia food show. Yum. Then lots of rest and relax in the New Forest. I spent a lot of money but enjoyed every second.

    So far two loads of washing have been washed this morning but it looks like it will rain for a bit so I am waiting before I put it out.

    Also there has been a successful sale on fleabay so another £8.00 added to kitchen fund. I have plenty of items to list for next weekend and will start photographing and preparing a few adverts every day I think so I can post them at the weekend.
    Aesop there is so much to do in London: Job opportunities, socialising, the sights etc but it is a v fast pace of life and I wouldn't be able to save at all.It is so lovely to visit. I am v envious of you.

    Hello, Mrs Upside Down Bear Susan (3Dogs) knows you from the threads too. She understood what your avatar means and explained it to me. :j
    Photos taken. I will start to write adverts at leisure ready for posting in hols. Black clothes are so hard to take photos of. Hope I make some money.

    Plan for hols:
    List all excess clothes on fleabay weekend one and two done
    List v expensive clothes on Aesop's recommended sites
    Put all of my upstairs notes into order week one and two
    Bring home all folders round my desk and sort out into order week 3
    Make garden lovely week one and on going doing
    Get healthy and go for a few walks to the beach at least twice a week
    Keep buying lottery cards so I can get rich and not have to go back to work when I feel lucky Andy and Susan said not to as I can get addicted
    Prepare work stuff in case I don't win lottery after a big break
