    House jobs and boat jobs. Going to get the boat sorted first because we have a couple of people who want to buy it.

    Think he will need a day on the boat then he has got the rest of the week on house jobs 🤣🤣🤣

    Yes we have a couple of very good potential buyers. Hopefully one will be a good outcome.

    Obviously not ideal at the minute but they are both keen.

    Good morning all. Its the weekend.

    Won't quite be a no spends day today. We need to go and get some fruit and vegetables from the farm shop and we are having a takeaway curry tonight. It is my birthday on Tuesday and in the absence of anything else to do we are having a curry and a few beers to celebrate as it is the closest weekend🤣🤣🤣

    Not sure what else we are doing today. Guess we will take the dog out for a good long walk somewhere. Not much else to do!
