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 😁
