Loving the tinned potato ideas 👍
We ended up going to Spoons for tea which is just up the road from the hotel. The singer was amazing. A good assortment of songs - just him, his guitar and his own take on songs. We will definitely go again but eat there next time. I get a discount on food and drink with my membership 😁👍January spends - £587.581 -
The stewed steak, cabbage and potatoes I’d planned yesterday will be used today instead 😁 Ds is coming around. It’s another wet and windy day here. I’m hoping for a crack of sunshine so we can go for a walk 😏 it’s not looking good though…..January spends - £587.581

It was forecast for rain all day here but it quickly turned to sunny but windy. The wind is bitter though 🥶I get knocked down but I get up again (Chumbawamba, Tubthumping)2

I’ve just booked a swim for tomorrow afternoon. I’m going to a U3A singalong in the morning- no idea what I’m letting myself in for…..I told the organiser I enjoy singing but I’m not sure folk enjoy listening 😂😂😂 whilst I’m out I’ll do a slight detour to the gym. Going last night to the bar there made me think about using my membership again now omicron has subsided a little. I’m going to try a swim session and a gym session a week…..even if it’s only a short session. Little and often is the way to go for me.
I know I keep saying it and not doing much about it…..but I really do need to get rid of a stone and a half. I’ve started getting discomfort under some scarring and I’m convinced it’s to do with carrying the extra weight in that area😳
