Things can only get better

How annoying about the beer. Picking substitutions appears to be an art form, I think MrT sends their pickers to wonderland for some kind of a mad hatters training course before they begin.
I hope dog feels better soon, they do gurgle spectacularly! 

I think that sums up the pickers at all supermarkets really well.

We have had some really random subs in the past.

The kitten sitting next to my wine advent calendar. The dog can’t take her eyes off her but they need to get used to each other.

Omg she is so cute and I expect she will have the dog wrapped around her paw in no time. Thinking back to when our second cat came back to live with us and I'm sure he made friends with B before he got along with the other cat. It was weird because he grew up with the other cat 🤷‍♀️

I'm sure that kitten is waiting to get some of the wine in its bowl.

I spoke too soon about today not being manic at work. 

Took an early lunch break to pick up Mr SA's beer from Mr T, he and the dog came with me so the dog got a decent street walk as it's a fair walk away. Came back and just had enough time to eat lunch before it was back into the next meeting.

Bought a Curry's e-voucher via work we get discounts on some things so got 6% discount on the voucher, not a lot but better than nothing. I used this voucher to buy a small freezer, being delivered on Sunday. Not sure yet whether to put it where Mr SA keeps his scooter in a covered, sheltered area as the freezer withstands being in an outside/garage up to minus 15. Either that or in the spare room.

I would be tempted to use the spare room then you don’t have to go outside in all weathers to grab that emergency ice cream or whatever 😁 Also I would worry that the outside area wasn’t secure…imagine if someone got hold of your Christmas food 😮

@Sun_Addict Please tell us more about your wine advent calendar. The kitten is unbearably cute!

@Scottiedog_3 It’s from Laithwaites and is 23 small bottles of red wine (enough for a glass) plus half a bottle of champagne for Christmas Eve. I’ve had wine advent calendars in the past and been disappointed because there were too many white wines. I prefer red and only drink white in summer. The Laithwaites ones are all red, all white or mixed. I’ve had gin ones before but there’s too many liqueur gins in them and they’re too sweet for me. I always used to get beauty advent calendars too but I have so many toiletries/cosmetics I really don’t need any more adding to the pile. 

I like to treat myself, I’m worth it 🤣🤣

Of course you are!
