    It is important that we know where we come from, because if you do not know where you come from, then you do not know where you are, and if you don't know where you are, then you don't know where you are going. If you don't know where you're going, you're probably going wrong.

    Dear kind humans, thank you so very much for your kind words, thoughts and messages. I'm truly blessed. XOXOXOX

    What a mixed few weeks - in many ways and financially.

    Must do some updates and fathom out a bit more order and calm in my life.

    I guess it starts with banks......

    Hello to you all dear friends thanks for the patience. Loss is so devastating, in every way. He's home and nestled safely in the garden, chasing birds in his dreams no doubt. Every time I pass him I say hello, throw the odd bonio and apologise for all the mud on his wee scruffy head.........
    Total debt 26/4/18 <£1925 we were getting there. :beer:
    Total debt as of 28/4/19 £7867.38:eek:
    minus 112.06 = £7755.32:money:
    :money:Sleeves up folks.:money:
