    Went shopping last night and bought the alcohol for the weekend, I'd already got a few beers and a bottle of wine put by so didn't buy much more - just a few craft beers and some wine for Mrs fatrab. I'm half looking forward to having a drink and half dreading it!


    29/30 & 89/90 for today please Baileys :)


    I don't normally post on weekends but I'll be on tomorrow to finally see 90/90!!
