    Good luck with the job application and with the continuous disinfecting of everywhere DD has been.  Hope she gets better soon.
    I bought myself a Mia tui  weekend bag after you mentioned them on your diary - so I think I'll count that against your spending day total (it wasn't my fault I bought it as it's impossible to resist a dusty pink weekend bag). However,  I will take responsibility for booking 4 nights away straight after new year in order to use the new bag 😂
    Which one did you get? I’ve got the Jennie and it’s the best airport/travel bag I’ve owned and I’ve had a fair few over the years 😆 Any excuse to use your new bag 🤣

    The Lenny - in dusky pink.  I used my personal spends budget to buy it and I did actually need a weekend bag - I used a large canvas shopping bag last time I went away - I was so embarrassed that I sneaked it out of the car.

    Forgot to mention this but the bolt on the pavement I tripped over on the way to work a couple of weeks ago has finally been removed by the council 👍
    Well done!

    DD is still poorly, she has no sense of taste. She came in the kitchen while I was there touching door handles and things with her Covid hands 😱I went round spraying everything with disinfectant but who knows how many things she’s touched. It will be a miracle if we don’t come down with it. 
    I was only saying this morning to my DH that there's been no more mention in the current COVID "health adverts" about hand-washing, which is crucial to cut down transmission risks.
    What would you get if all you got was what you were thankful for?
