Nails done, nice bright blue. I had a cunning plan to make sure he didn’t follow me - I took his scooter keys with me 🤣

On the MSE front received a £10 Amazon gift card from British Gas for renewing the home care agreement. I had no idea I was getting this I thought it was a scam at first. Shuffled £7.46 into the Christmas pot so it now stands at £531.68. Getting closer to the £600 target 😃I get knocked down but I get up again (Chumbawamba, Tubthumping)4

For some time we’ve been having issues with Virgin TV channels pixelating on our TV. I’ve phoned them before and they fobbed me off with a local issue being fixed. Have rebooted the box and fiddled with wires goodness knows how many times. Today it got to the point where it was unwatchable. Phoned them again, they ran a test and have finally acknowledged there is a problem with the signal. Engineer coming out on Monday. Hallelujah 👏 Hopefully another niggle sorted.I get knocked down but I get up again (Chumbawamba, Tubthumping)4
