    2/14 for yesterday, please. A 90 minute zoom meeting helped keep me occupied last night :-) 
    What would you get if all you got was what you were thankful for?

    Wow Lantanna that is willpower. 

    I did have some chilled fizz in the fridge RobM99  but rreally wanted a bottle of red and didn't have that in the house. Just as well as I don't think I could have resisted that. 

    Well done Sukeyboo - success and lots of days to go yet. Leftathetrafficlights going great guns too. And Satchmo lots of zoom meetings drive me to drink so glad it was a better outcome for you.
