I am so sorry you have to hide your gin again. It is so wearing. I have the same problem withMr LH and his cigs. I always keep a spare packet as sometime he smokes more than others. He is constantly finding where the spare pack is which doesnt really matter as they are his but he never tells me until the spare pack is smoked and he is left with none. Usually os a Sunday evening.2

OH SA how frustrating. The others are being very kind suggesting you replace it with water though - I'd have opted for white vinegar I think...🎉 MORTGAGE FREE (First time!) 30/09/2016 🎉 And now we go again…New mortgage taken 01/09/23 🏡

On another topic, do you have an air fryer. Wondering if I could make a veggie lasagne in my air fryer? I will do some research...

Heard back from 0ctopus and they've agreed there's no need to up the direct debt while I'm so much in credit. I'll review the situation later in the year.
Took the dog to the park earlier and bumped into some neighbours who've just returned from Lanzarote. On the flight back home the plane started to smell of burning shortly after take off and had to turn around and make an emergency landing back in Lanzarote. They said it was very frightening but it hasn't put them off flying.I get knocked down but I get up again (Chumbawamba, Tubthumping)4 -
