I was very relieved at the time and very impressed with the people who came and cleaned it all up, after a day you wouldn't have known what had happened 😊 the chairs sound like they are coming along nicelyOriginal Debt Owed Jan 18 = £17,630 Paid To Date = £6,736 Owed = £10,8941

I bet the smell was horrendous OBL....glad it was sorted for you.
My elbow has been really sore and swollen and I’m wondering if it’s sewing the chair that is aggravating it.....or the cold weather. I’ve got a phone appointment with the surgeon who operated on it next week.....even though it’s a bit sore I’m still glad I had it done. There’s no way I’d have been able to attempt the chair or any knitting before the op.I’ve just watched Beatrix Potter and thoroughly enjoyed it even though I’ve seen it before, Dh is cooking a roast pork dinner and it is smelling delicious.....we will be eating it all week as it’s quite a big piece. Loving my lazy Sunday 👍January spends - £587.581 -

Not much to report. We’ve just been a ride to post a birthday card for dh niece, which I’d forgotten to post.....his niece but I forgot the card 😏😂😂😂😂 It’s a quick 5 minute burst along the motorway but we drove on the ordinary roads to see a bit of what is happening with the world outside. It’s sad to see everywhere closed up. We were there and back in less than an hour and that included a 5 minute distanced chat to the birthday girl. We contemplated a walk by the big canal around the corner from her but decided it was too icy.NSD - no idea how many that makes this month but I’ve only been shopping about once a week 😄January spends - £587.581

Cc paid in full.I’ve spent the afternoon sorting out a notebook where I keep all sorts of snippets of info I might need again. Lol....I was looking for some info to check my wage slips last week and knew I had it in my book - couldn’t find it for love nor money. Ended up emailing the support team to get online. There it was today squashed in between different info. So this afternoon I’ve faced the frog and sorted the book out. It’s needed doing for a few years now - but at least it’s done now 😄👍January spends - £587.581

grrrr....trying to log on to t’internet bank I don’t use very often. The website has been changed and it’s not accepting my codes....so that’s my morning sorting that out 😳Annnnndddd it’ll mess my newly neatly organised book having to alter the info 😡January spends - £587.581

Doh 😳😂 I sorted my t’internet banking in minutes by putting the right code in the right box 😂😂 instead of going on autopilot and putting what I think they wanted me to put. It does help when I read things properly instead of assuming. And there was me blaming the bank webpage 🙄 sorry bank webpage Phew......my newly written book stays neatly intact for another day 🤞😂😂January spends - £587.581
