You left that very open Pips me dear...
options...
1) end of day = when the sun sets (about 3:30ish at this time of year)
2) end or day = quitting time (about 5 or 6?)
3) end of day = bed time (9 or 10)
4) end of day = about midnight (when you suddenly sit bolt upright in bed and remember you meant to do a meal plan earlier in the day):rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:
