    Probably won’t be this year. Mr SA is hard work to take away and I’m constantly on tenterhooks, we might have to pay for the dog’s op if the insurance won’t cover it plus DD is having her op soon.

    The bed in the hotel was super comfortable which I realised was due to a fairly thick mattress topper. I’m thinking about getting one so if anyone can recommend one I’d appreciate it. Needs to be easily washable though.

    Dunelm had a large selection when I bought mine last year. I can't remember which one I bought in the end, but I'm very happy with it. It's fairly thick & doesn't wrinkle up or move about at all.

    Welcome home. You have certainly got straight into daily life.
    I know what you mean about your own bed. I was so glad to get mine back after my little break. 
    Sorry to hear you lost good councillors at the local elections

    Is it worth getting an airtag to put on them?
