Excellent news about the job - well done.
Isn't it odd that we lose track of how cities feel? Or busy shops, for that matter. I suppose we'll gradually ease back to familiarity.I think a bit of sunshine is good for frugal living. (Cranky40)

Well done on the job offer.
About the photo idea - we've recently paid £40 for a framed A4 print of a photo we really liked! Think the copy of the photo was £25 + £15 for the frame so make sure you don't under price your brilliant photos (think some of your photos are much better than the one we bought!).
