  • Working 7 days a week isn't good for you, do have tomorrow for yourself.

    Would it be worth planting loads of different bulbs which pop up throughout the year. Minimal effort, just a bit of weeding, with bursts of colour.

    Yes that's exactly what i am doing. I have purple plants all year round and am a bit short in the summer. Every year i am planning to buy more as money allows.

    I walked to the supermarket and spent £30 on fruit, glucose tablets and non essential treats & withdrew £20 for lovely gift things i will pick up tomorrow for presents.  I have £5 left in my account and £10 in cash. Roll on Friday.
    Today will be spent resting and answering a few internet bits for work. I am chilled and happy. I reckon i will be going back into work v soon.
