    Thanks Lou. Currently in a royal wedding fest.. surreal but am coping :rotfl:

    CC has gone. So so relieved. £2295 odd down the tubes. Will now close that card. Just the car and a few other bits to pay off. Bring it on

    Love to all

    Xx

    :D Sounds luscious..

    Thanks for popping by greent and Tilly. Tilly - hope its all going well in renovation land....

    Great weekend with friends and now getting ready for another big week at work, but at least Oh is back home.

    Super pleased at getting shot of the holiday CCs..BUT need to keep on track and not so many days booked on my main contract for a few months. So need to be careful.

    Have started my bullet journal again to try and get me on track and also did some exercises from Louise Parker today. Surprisingly hard work :/ so need to set aside time to do that every day.

    Have a good week folks, off for an early night now. Up at crack of dawn tomorrow.
