Things can only get better

I saw them a couple of weeks ago & when I went back they were gone.
They looked lovely

It sounds as if you’ve had some lovely M&S bargains. 

I hope your holiday will go ahead - I’m presuming you’ll have to isolate for 14 days on return - or have they mentioned changing it yet....I’ve lost track with what’s going on!!

The 14 days quarantine will have gone by the time we go I reckon. If it hasn’t it won’t be a problem as I’ll still be working from home. Things are moving rapidly on the travel front. Makes me laugh when our government are concerned about us travelling from the UK where people are still dying from the virus to a country where they’ve more or less eradicated it. 

OMG I plucked up the courage to weigh myself this morning and I’m 7lbs over goal 😱😩 I know my scales weigh a bit heavier than the ones at WW but still. The line in the sand has been drawn and I am back on the wagon as from right now.

I’ve done the same re the scales. At the beginning of lockdown I was super good  lost 1/2 stone in a couple of weeks - conserving things in case I couldn’t get them.....then I realised there weren’t really any shortages just panic buying. I weighed myself yesterday and I’m a lb heavier than when I started SW in 2012.....oh dear....I just can’t stop snacking on rubbish 🍭🍩🍪🍰🍫🍟....I need less of these and more of these.... 🥦🍅🥬🍆🍇🍏🍎🥗🥣.  Time to kick myself up the jacksie and put my backside into gear 😳😳😳
Hopefully our C.V. figures will go down and there will be no need for quarantine....I’m not holding my breath on that one though as there’s an awful lot of ignoring of the lockdown rules going on 🤔😳

Afternoon all, happy Sunday 😎

Took the dog out for a walk this morning, walked round the block but a different route going via the little side roads that run off the hills. OMG some of the houses ❤ One of them had a balcony at the back with glass all round it with a hot tub and sunbeds ❤ Another was set back down a long drive lined with palm trees. Talk about hidden gems.

After that did the Insanity class but couldn't get any sound up so it wasn't the easiest class to follow, sort of managed it but it was like being deaf.  Apparently it was a technical fault nothing to do with me vs technology.

Mr SA a bit miffed because he didn't get a Father's Day card from DS and he rang him to complain.  Apparently he posted it 1st class on Wednesday. I had him a mug custom made for Mr SA from the dog that I got from a FB ad, was a tad dubious as had to pay in US dollars and it came from the US, but it was lovely, really pleased with it. They make all sorts of mugs to order different dog/cat types, person skin/hair colour etc. Not cheap though, he'd better not break it 🤣

Finances done and I have a £41.65 underspend at the end of week 3 of the budget, yes you read that right 😁 £40.00 has gone into the end of the month pot and the £1.65 into VSP. Today is another NSD. 

Spain have ended their lockdown and visitors from the UK are allowed back in, now just got to wait for our government to release us back into the wild. Looking very positive for the Ibiza trip at the end of August 😎 I know of bars/restaurants in Lanzarote who won't reopen until UK/Ireland visitors are free to travel. Going to wait a couple of weeks, as advised by travel chap on the TV, then provided all is ok will be booking a trip to Lanzarote for early October.

That's a fantastic underspend, well done!

I thought of you straight away when I heard Spain are opening their borders to Brits.

I know there’s been a bit of a delay with the post tell Mr SA lately, few issues here and there and less staff! I’m off to Ibiza at the end of August too! I’ve got everything crossed and hopefully no second wave etc!

Great underspend.
The post is not the best at the moment but I am sure they are trying their best.
Postal survey results will not be good.

@swfcfan whereabouts in Ibiza are you going? We’re going to Cala Gracio 10 minutes walk from Cafe Mambo on the sunset strip in San Antonio. I love Ibiza, been going since the kids were little, been to several resorts, all equally fabulous 💕

I think there might be a few dads not got their cards, unfortunately everyone is ordering online  right now.
