Things can only get better

As far as I’m aware there aren’t any issues at our local airport. Thanks to Mr SA we never have to queue anyway, he comes in useful occasionally 😆

Finances looked at and credit card cleared. £12.54 underspend on groceries last week £2.54 has gone to the Christmas pot and £10 to the house pot. Need to keep underspending so I can keep adding to the house pot ready for the end of June refurb work. 

Also sent £170 to the holiday pot.

Just cancelled Spotify Premium so a saving of £119.88 a year. This has been on my to do list for ages, I just don’t use it enough to justify £9.99 a month. I tend to listen to playlists on the BBC Sounds app or podcasts both are free.

I have Spotify and National Trust on my "watch" list to see if we are getting good value for money from them.

I’m get a lot of use from my NT membership. I’ve considered Spotify but wouldn’t use it as I usually just listen to the radio - glad I never started 😁

I used to use Spotify a lot to download playlists and albums to listen to offline when I was walking to work but since the pandemic started I’ve hardly used it. The BBC Sounds app has got so much better in the past year or so, I can download radio shows and playlists and listen to them offline.  

The next on my list is the Latest in Beauty beauty box subscription. I pay £9 a month for 3 items and the past few months I’ve struggled to find something I want on the list of choices. It can be extremely good value though so not stopping it yet. I already have a Look Fantastic beauty box once a month, that is brilliant value at £13 a month. What I like about it is you don’t know what you’re going to get but it’s always worth loads more than £13. The contents are based on my profile preferences so it’s not often I get anything I won’t use. It’s like Christmas once a month when that arrives 😆

Morning, happy Tuesday

I started feeling like I'd got a cold coming on last night, blocked nose and a bit of a cough.. This morning a sore throat and achy feeling have been added into the mix. I haven't take a LFT yet, I'm WFH today so not going anywhere. If I still feel rough tomorrow I'll take one first thing, I'm not due back in the office until Thursday.

Mr M order arriving later this morning, no missing items or subs. Have bagged a bargain in the form of Easter veg, they are on sale for 19p each (carrots, parsnips and swede), had a 50p off Easter veg coupon then take off family staff discount - got all three for 2p. Mr SA's beer is on offer 2 crates for £20 so have bought 4 (will hide them though). 

Exercise is lunchtime dog walking, lunchtime live bums and tums session and live resistance band training after work. Might fit in the new Get Fit with Rick Queen 10 mins walking walkout too if I can.

@Sun_Addict hope you feel better soon.   I know a lot of people who've gone down with Covid but all mild.  Like a cold, as long as you're jabbed which I think you are, no? Always read your diary and am in awe.  Take care love Humdinger xx

Hope you just have a cold. 

That veg was a bargain!

I feel exhausted just reading that 😁 Have a good day.
