    100 get that re food. Just know I’d end up dealing with it all if we started shopping beyond a Sainsburys delivery haha.

    Glad you enjoyed your walk pic of the church is a bit stark/ eerie imo lol. Freezing here too.

    Happy Monday everyone.

    It won't be a no spends day today as we have a Tesco delivery coming later. No spends other than that though.

    Breakfast, lunch and dinner will be from stores. Breakfast was a sausage sandwich, lunch is tuna sandwiches and dinner tonight is haggis, neaps and tatties as it Burns night.

    Todays jobs include:
    • working from home
    • vacuuming the house
    • dusting the house
    • sorting and putting away home shopping delivery
    • walking the dog x 2
    The other half has just gone off to the boat to get a few bits done on that. Today he is going to get a load of our gear off the boat, replace the macerator pump, replace the alternator belt and have a general tidy up and clean in the engine bay.
