    Morning all, happy Friday 😎

    What a beautiful day it is, shame I'm stuck in the office. Finishing at lunchtime though.

    Mr SA was getting up just as I was leaving for work and has already phoned me twice asking what time I'll be back. The first call I was still walking to work! That's the trouble when he gets up so early, he makes it a long day for himself (and others!!) and he's bored already. 

    It won't be a NSD as I need to stop off at Lid! on the way home.

    Today's exercise is walking to/from work. I don't plan to do anything extra today. 

    Hoping to get at least an hour in my hanging chair when I eventually get home from work. 

    Tonight's dinner is lightly dusted fish with steamed veg.

    We had lightly dusted sole last night. Is it the one from L*d! that you buy?  I love that one. 

    I can see why Mr SA gets up early now , its way too hot to lay in. Our upstairs is like an oven.
