    It is! I’ve got so mean that spending up front is really hard..even though I know I’ll save it back with interest 😅

    I’ve already got the 15 in 1 which I love, full roast chicken In 50 mins but I’m still putting the oven on to do the roasts etc so I want the dual basket air fryer so I can use that as well 🤣. All to save money long term of course !

    I’ve got the 9 in 1, the dual and the 8 in 1 oven. I love them all but my favourite has to be the dual. I haven’t used my oven for almost 2 years.

    @dawnybabes and @Sun_Addict it was the 2 drawer one I was looking at, but maybe we need one of each??

    The 2 drawer one is the Dual, I can highly recommend it. The oven is good for pizzas and tray bakes. Initially I bought the first one to replace my old air fryer then they started breeding 🤣

    Good morning and happy Friday 🍦☕️📚
    Smallest cat raced across my face in the night for some reason, so my lip was gushing blood 😳 I had a hand covered in it by the time I got the bathroom mirror (trying to save the bedding and carpet along the way), but oddly once I’d washed it off it stopped straight away. It was like a tap, very odd. I shoved some savlon on half asleep and went back to bed. So this morning I look like I’ve had a fight…blinking cats 🙄
    Other than that, it’s just work today and a determination not to spend as this week has been a frittering kind of week! The last week of the month I’m on holiday, so there’ll be a lot of eating out spending then too. August will have to be a belt tightening month. 
    I hope you all have a fabulous day 📚☕️🍦🌞

    Happy Friday 🥳

    It’s surprising how much small cuts bleed. I had a really tiny spot on my nose and caught it on a stiff towel. It poured with blood for ages!

    My cats have been trying to get me up since 4am, the older one was on my pillow tapping my face 😐

    I don't let the pets come upstairs during the night but the cat starts meowing and scratching at the stairs door around 4.30am every morning. I ignore it and usually he stops after a few minutes. Unfortunately I can't lock the boys downstairs 😅, one of them came to our bed during the night and the other one came at 5.30. There was no space left in bed so he got up on me and started talking. When asked to be quiet he suddenly got very hungry and to save everyone else I gave up and went downstairs with him. I remember my sister had the same strategy to wake my mum up early, crying for food. When I got downstairs the dog had a runny #2 accident, all very dry already and needed lots of scrubbing. I'm trying not to have a 3rd coffee yet 😴
