    Hi 
    I have updated totals and allocated #21 to booksandcoffee,  welcome 👋
    Things are crazy busy at work (school) as well as that my course has been approved so I need to crack on with that.
    Life at home is fairly hectic too, my son is getting married in August, he is currently up North on Covid duty (army) so I am helping his fiancee get things organised, luckily I kept a lot of info from my wedding 2 years ago 😁
    Hope you are all keeping safe and well, catch you again soon x
    new challenge?

  • Ugh! I hate the new look, it’s like it was scribbled over by a three year old.  Anyways, I’ve past another threshold:
    #6 £201/£365 🥳
