Hi everyone
Just updated my signature and pleased that I have made a positive start. I have finished all my present spending for this year and just a small food shop next week to do. Having Christmas dinner at my daughters (bubble) but wont be seeing them until the day and then not after for a while, thank goodness for WhatsApp etc at least I can 'see' my dds safely when I/ them want to chat!
Off to have a quick round the boards and then bed
