    Tesco sell samphire. Tastes good to me, but then I've never been to Norfolk....
    Chances are it's from Israel. I've never been a big fan of Israeli samphire, too many food miles. There! Do I win middle class bingo? :D

    Feeling miles better today (first uninterrupted sleep in 8 days), but still blech. Optimistic I'll be back in the office tomorrow (sounds strange saying that).
    Two of my listings were cancelled last night (Swiss army knives for a career as an avid camper that was never going to happen as I prefer to visit nature, not sleep out in it). Oops! I guess I can take up whittling? :open_mouth: Have bids on the console already.
    £45.86 paid off CC (regular payment + £2 H@lifax Reward + 16p TCB). Minimum payment on the card is now less than £100/mth, would only be £40 or so if it was any provider other than B@rclaycard.
    Right, back to bed, still exhausted.

    Went back to work - biggest mistake! Had to give up by noon, have been in bed since then. Doc gave me strong antibiotics, so hopefully that will kill this damn lurgy!

    Also, found a scratch to our car directly underneath the wing mirror. Is fairly deep (I can feel the dent), but short. No idea how it could have happened, the rest of the car is still in its just-resprayed glory  :s

    Feeling a little delirious today, always get a fever when my sleep has been bad and I'm on antibiotics.
    £51.53 paid off CC (regular payment and £8 from a random eB@y sale).
