I'm not sure how my friend accesses it tbh, I'm seeing her next week and will ask, but I did ask if she had to pay and she said no. Cherry is right, they will all be checked out and it's a door to door service which would be much easier for you all.

My uncle did volunteer driving for a local hospice for years. There's probably lots of people out there who could help, it's just finding out how to access things sometimes. xx

Check to see if there's a local volunteer service in your town too, we used ours when. We needed lifts to hospital - they do charge but not for time, just for the cost of fuel so it was around £4 for a hospital trip each way but train/bus/taxi would have been over £30 each way.

Morning WB Hope you and the smalls have been enjoying yourselves now the appointments are over for now.

Did you get your shopping delivered? I don't need a specific delivery time so I choose a slot that only costs £1 which is definitely worth the money.

Weather is lovely here today. Hope you and the DC's manage to get out and about for some fresh air. xx

Morning (just)

Thank you

Yesterday was another spendy day. £7 50 bus fare. £44.50 to have my phone repaired (really upset about this) but we can't manage with no phone. It does the tv etc and I needed for youngest/hospital etc etc really could have done without breaking it though. It dropped off the pram onto the hospital floor and completely smashed and wouldn't even turn on

Tea I haven't done the grocery shopping yet I think that's what I'm going to do though. We need toiletries/washing powder etc and some tinned things so I think it will be easier.

Weather is lovely. We are making the most of it and going to go to the country park with a pack lunch and get some fresh air. Hoping it lifts my headache.

Hope you've all have a wonderful day

Oh blimey, you could have done without the added expense of that.

For what it costs I'd definitely get your shopping delivered especially if you need lots of heavy stuff.

Have a lovely day at the park. Hope the headache goes. xx

It might be worth you investing in an ruggedised phone cover when you're not having a spendy week - I drop mine all the time, so I have really tough covers on them (one work, one personal) by i-blason. They're not the most expensive, but they've more than paid for themselves over the years. If you let me know what model of phone you've got I'll see if I have a spare as I've got the old ones from work phones lying around somewhere waiting to be disposed of.

Boo to phone but glad it is sorted.
I have an unicorn beetle cover in mine as also prone to dropping it.
Enjoy your day. X

Sorry to hear about your phone, Wannabe - as someone who has had a walking nightmare with hers the past few weeks, I feel your pain. xxx
