I quite often go to bed as soon as I'm home (chronic fatigue), I find that I eventually wake up to eat.4

Ooh, and TopCashBack tried to tempt me with 20% cashback on Oasis today, so I thought I'd have a look and see what they had in their sale. By the time I was on page 14 of 30 (30 pages of sale items - and that was with it filtered to only show my size 😱!) I only had one item in my basket, which I wasn't convinced about anyway, so decided I couldn't be bothered to look at the remaining 16 pages and abandoned ship 😀!Mortgage start: £65,495 (March 2016)

Well done on the work lunches. Good luck with the ironing. I suggest finding a trashy film to distract you.
I'm working today. No one else about, so I've been able to concentrate properly which has been nice. I just need them all to stay away for another month and I might catch up...6 -
Wow! 32 work lunches is very organised. Why exactly did you take up ironing again???
