Totally agree with you about the light bulbs SA. I've looked everywhere, but they all seem to be LED now with appropriate price tags!
Glad you got your food delivery... wish I could even order mine, but that's a whole other story.I Believe.....
That it isn't always enough, to be forgiven by others.
Sometimes, you have to learn to forgive yourself.

Today is a gift. That's why it is called the present.

Not thought of eBay for lightbulbs.Hospital appointments cancelled for next week, not surprised in the least. I was a bit uncomfortable travelling on 4 buses and being around a hospital anyway.Mr SA has had us turning the house upside down for a bag he insists he’s got but can’t find. He’s got loads of bags but I don’t recall one fitting his description. If he doesn’t find it he wants to order one online, he needs this bag urgently apparently 😩
Ended up not going to Savers, will go tomorrow when I pop into work for a short time to pick a few bits up. I’ve been told it’s ok to go in but I mustn’t stay longer than I need to.
Mr M app is now closed down. No new slots appearing on the website.Took the dog on the park at lunchtime and there were quite a few older kids there in groups. So much for social isolating.
Must nip round to a neighbours tomorrow to let her know WW isn’t on and to leave my phone number in case she needs anything fetching, she’s over 70 and has diabetes.I get knocked down but I get up again (Chumbawamba, Tubthumping)7 -
Pleased your hospital appointment has been cancelled - no point sitting in a crowded waiting room for ages to have a 2 minute consultation and told everything doing nicely - see you again in a couple of months......that’s how my orthopaedic appointments have panned out anyway.Good that your shopping has arrived too.

Morning all, happy Friday
Working in the office for a couple of hours this morning, there are about 5 of us here, it's really spooky. It doesn't affect me but does many of my colleagues school-wise we've been given key worker status as of last night. There'll be some happy parents and disappointed kids.
I've been lucky with my Mr M deliveries because their online deliveries come straight from the warehouse rather than the shop.
Hope everyone is ok and stays safe.
