    LOL.  I love doing jigsaws and have done about six  since lockdown in March.  They can become seriously addictive.  Next door neighbours and I are passing the ones we have done on to each other when finished.

    Glad you're still not smoking.  Keep going and enjoy those jigsaws.

    Just bought a rather pretty PC case...I will buy one or two components each month...I can recycle my existing graphics cards, PSU, SSD, HDD.  I don't have to buy too many parts...the money will come out of my diving budget, as that is more or less on hold for a year...I will just have to save up the diving budget again...

    Are you still a no smoker?  I'm sure DHL will eventually deliver to the right address!  You just need to have a bit of patience, although I know how annoying it can be!  I hate it when delivery companies say they've delivered to you and they haven't or they've said you weren't in when you are, grr...

    Yay for me.  Still smoke-free after all these days....it has been a couple of weeks since my 'wobble'.  And hopefully lockdown ends in about three weeks...

    My social worker has been changed.  And I really had a good working relationship with the last one too.  Oh well...the new one may be even better...Though this makes me scared that they will discharge me...(my last care plan review was done without my consultant being present)
