Good news on the pension.
I use decaf tea and coffee. I had the Aldi tea and it was like sweepings up - never again - coffee was ok from there. My favourite decaf tea is Yorkshire but I can cope with Tetley or PG if they’re on offer.

My work colleague has Yorkshire Decaff , I tried it yesterday it was ok , so I think I will be buying that.

Teabags for me mostly come from ThaT supermarkeT - I can't tell the difference between theirs and Tetley truth be told!

Do you ever wish you didn't have a mobile , then people can't get you all the time. Anyway let's move on ! Today was a good day at work , I do say I have some really helpful colleagues who are willing to help you .

Tomorrow is of course childminding day , DGD and I have a raft of errands to do , need to go to ex MIL as it's her birthday I have got her a few flowers .

Another NSD so four this week , which is good. I went swimming last night at the gym and thoroughly enjoyed it.

Thank you all for for your comments .

Have done some pension looking at today , my old bank pensions website has a forecast quote you can do and I was pleasantly surprised at the forecast. Not millions of pounds but not to be sniffed at considering it was non contributory . It has made me very determined to get rid of the remaining debt in the next 18 months .

I have an old bank pension too and was really surprised at the forecast of what I will receive next year when I am 60. Apparently it has been going up by 8.5% a year and I left 32 years ago. A friend of mine also had a bank pension and I told her to look into getting a forecast as she was not going to bother as she left so long ago. Hers was more than expected too. As you say not a fortune but every little helps.

Had a good day with DGD , she had a 2 hour sleep so was able to have a rest. Posted some parcels this morning , went to the hospital to sort an apt out. Stopped off in M@S for a birthday present for great grandma , some chocolates. Went to visit said grandma , picked up DGS , took them home , fed them .

Have spent about £15 on parcels and present. Tomorrow I am going to help in a charity shop near work , as part of our work place volunteering. Hope to go food shopping on the way home , as mum and dad are away so no need to take them.

Hoping for a rest day on Sunday , and on on leave Monday.
