I had an attack of the Sunday scaries earlier 😞 Then reminded myself only 2 more weeks until holiday and this time next year Sunday scaries will be a thing of the past.
Got loads of cleaning done today, managed to do most of the house. The weather has been one minute sunny the next heavy rain so definitely an indoors day.I get knocked down but I get up again (Chumbawamba, Tubthumping)5 -

Your story of the priest on the roundabout reminded me of our Vicar, many years ago, trying out one of the children's scooters and sailing down an empty aisle in the church, past Norman arches and 18th century graffiti with white robes billowing around him and a beatific smile on his face.
That cat caravan is lovely!
Sorry to hear about the Sunday scaries, but how nice to know they will soon be behind you.
I think a bit of sunshine is good for frugal living. (Cranky40)
