Tea sounds lovely.
Hope you enjoyed the exercise class.
I love prosecco on a day like today. I didn't pick a bottle up this week but do have a fruity wine instead.

The dog has been living her best life today playing in the garden with the GKs, she’ll sleep well tonight. The weather has been amazing and I got to sit in my hanging chair reading my book. Summer is finally here ❤️ ☀️I rarely go in Farmf00ds but was attracted in by the offer on my favourite loo roll (little 🦆) 4 packs of 18 for £20. Great saving as they’re around £7 a pack elsewhere. Mr SA is highly amused at me having a favourite loo roll 😆I get knocked down but I get up again (Chumbawamba, Tubthumping)5

The Prosecco hasn’t been opened ☹️ Too tired tonight but will roll it over to tomorrow. The GKs were hard work today although occupied by the dog running up and down the garden 😆I get knocked down but I get up again (Chumbawamba, Tubthumping)3

As far as I am concerned you can go down market for baked beans but never for loo roll. Anyone remember Izal, my mother was still using it 12 years ago. Great tracing paper.

Absolutely! I googled to see what became of it and apparently people are selling vintage rolls online for around £25. I think I've heard everything now.badmemory said:As far as I am concerned you can go down market for baked beans but never for loo roll.

Morning all, happy Sunday ☀️
Beautiful day already so looking forward to spending most of the day outside.It was going to be a NSD but weather wise it’s a great opportunity to take the winter duvet to the launderette, it will dry in no time. We can sit outside Cost@ with the dog while it’s washing. Sounds like a plan.The rest of the day will be spent gardening and sitting in the sun.Tonight’s dinner is the last portion of vegan wellington from the freezer with steamed Jersey Royal potatoes and veg. I need to make a batch of soup for work lunches. I know it’s not exactly soup weather but it’s an easy option, once it’s made that’s me sorted for the week.I get knocked down but I get up again (Chumbawamba, Tubthumping)5
