    Thanks HSL, MF, Jwil
    The new target cc has no paper statements. I haven't accessed account for over a year. New details haven't arrived yet. Was set as direct debit min payments. Now in position to pay more but won't let me past security. Ridiculous. H**C

  • Lovely to see the cards disappearing one by one.  Hope the spicy soup was warming.  I managed to overdo the spice in the curry tonight.  I swear I followed the usual recipe, but might have used an actual teaspoon for tea, rather than a teaspoon measure.  Me, cooking and tiredness definitely doesn't work.

    Thanks Sandy. We're getting there. DH gets paid Friday - but as far as I know he hasn't submitted his OT claim yet which is irritating. I've done a bit of work on social media marketing tonight both for today and other days. I am experimenting with different methods and will see what works. I also edited a little of book 2.

    Written another scene of my book 2 - increasing my word count by 853 even after earlier editing some out. Pleased with that. 9th 5* rating. Reviews make the most difference to a purchaser's decision - so very grateful.
