Heads up. There's an add for amazon music on twitter at the moment 3 months free.
I love listening to music on spotify but the adverts do my head in so when they run the 3 months for 99p promotion once a year or so I buy it. First time ive seen a similar offer from amazon. So ive set a calendar reminder to cancel it at 2 months 3 weeks and ive spent the last hour building playlists.Bottom line;

Kitten is back from the vets with a cone on. She is very happy to be home but hating the cone. It's quite funny to see her moodily stalking around.
Lovely when she came back though that all she wanted to do was sit next to my daughter.Bottom line;

Kitten has managed to take the cone off overnight and shred the bandage that was acting as the collar! She's left her stitches alone so I'm going to leave the cone off I think.
Just waiting to call the garage at 9am- I somehow have booked the service for the car under the number plate of my last car, that I scrapped in 2018! No ide what was happening in my head when that went on!Bottom line;

Yes its lovely. That beach is a cove a few minutes drive from my house. It's small and really quiet even in the summer and one of the best things about where I liveBottom line;

That's good. The beach near me is always packed as soon as weather is nice sadly. Especially as two summers ago they added a splash park and now sun's out and it's manic.*Dad loan - £5300 - £7300

So the kitten came and mithered at me earlier until i got up- I assumed she was nagging for extra food, she's waited until I sat down and has fallen asleep on my lap so clearly that's what she was after.
Daughter is engaged in a high energy cafe running game. I've had about 8 cups of imaginary tea and coffee so far. Its so odd that kids are so insistant in putting sugar in imaginary drinks, I don't have sugar in any drinks but she keeps steadfastly adding 3 spoons and wont be persuaded otherwise!Bottom line;

How long until you can train the child to bring real cups of tea?2
