  • Thank you all, I’ve had a lovely day today. It was so nice to go on the train to somewhere different, walk round some different shops and have a nice lunch and natter. Treated myself to another pair of magic trousers and the bag I wished I’d bought last time I was there from a little boutique. 

    The weather was awful most of the day, windy and rainy. 

    Got home to find a massive pile of sick in the dining room and more in the kitchen. Mr SA had fed the cats dog food and the dog cat food 🤦‍♀️ I suspect by the amount it was the dog who was sick. A nice welcome home for me to walk through the door and have to start clearing it up 🤮
    Very glad you had a good time, always seems to be the way when you have a good time, you come home to a reminder why you can't get out too much. Happens with mum and I a lot. 

    The shopping sounds lovely :)
