With over 800 posts to read I'm afraid I'm not catching up with your thread any time soon SH so thought I'd just dive right in at the end and wish you a wonderful holiday!

@EssexHebridean I wouldn't want to catch up 800 posts either... On the anniversary of this diary I am planning to make a part 2 section in a new diary. That's in a couple of months... 

Got cottage pie in the oven and some ginger flapjacks/semi biscuits.

Went in work today but a good day overall. It was nice to be in today. Talked to some different people. Showed off my garden improvements... However I left my washing out and it poured down with rain... Will review where it's up to in the morning but may need to put in the drier! I still want to wash another load. 

I still need to pack. 

DD isn't answering my calls so hope that means she's tucked up in bed or out having a good time... She normally wants me to pick her up after college. 

Sh3ll have confirmed the new rates for gas and given me an updated estimate. It was within £2 of mine so happy with that.

I go tomorrow afternoon. But of course my washing is still outside wet on the line... I need to reclaim a suitcase from DD and pack... So who knows what time I'll actually leave!! I am WFH in the morning and have two meetings and a few bits I need to finish off. 

I am sure some photos will be forthcoming. 

The cottage pies were divine. I may have had 2 portions... The chicken meal at lunch was fab too. I also had porridge and some flapjacks but only SW choc bars. Having more fibre as a snack seems to be helping with appetite control but not checked scales. Also had 4 tangerines today and then an apple from my tree.

I've been using my elec blanket this week. I plan to take it with me too. It makes such a difference providing targeted heat.

Will be interesting to see what the mini £ announcement has in it tomorrow. The NI thing should help me...

Have a lovely holiday.
I'm heading home today after my week away feeling relaxed and refreshed.  I hope your break has the same effect on you.
