    Just catching up and wow that sounds like a stressful time on pay day but glad you managed to get it sorted. 

    As for biscuits, I can eat a whole pack of Rich Tea in one go and not feel sorry about it 🤣  DH and I got into a bad habit of sharing a packet of biscuits a day when we were away for the weekend - went through 4 packets of caramel digestives between us 😲
