Happy belated Birthday Mrs SD. I'm glad you had a lovely day. Sorry I missed it, I haven't been checking in as I've had to get a second job because DH is still furloughed and I'm mainly sleeping when I'm at home !! Fingers crossed it is short term only, it is preventing me from decluttering and other MSE activities !
I saw that you said you are on the Isle of Dogs, DS had been trying to work out your closest DLR station (the Underground is his thing), he had decided he'd like it to be Mudchute or Royal Victoria (although that probably says more about the things close to those stations that he likes!).
I hope everybody is okay and staying safe xx
