List is growing now

List of things to get done:
Reclaim of Gatwick tickets plus taxi find receipt
VPN subscription cancel DG
2nd bedroom wash bedding
Check if enough duvet for guests 3 x single
Empty hot tub
Put stuff in loft
Check for chlorine in pool

DG did have a win yesterday we have an HP Printer Ink Subscription that suddenly did not update and it is a pain to use now. She spoke to the helpline they did a temp fix but it is still the same. It is something to do with the firewall software they have withdrawn but it is still looking for it and they have not come up with a fix for those models. Then DG being DG found the email address of the CEO of HP who passed it to another person in the UK. He was quite condescending saying there was no issue and it has to be our internet. DG flipped and replied back and straight away they are offering to buy the printer back so we can get another one. We do want an HP printer as we like the subscription so hopefully a new one wont be affected by this issue. The problem is all over the forums but nothing on their webpage etc. 

So one off the list that never made it on there lol.

Hungry already so hard when you pig out for a whole week. 

I do need to lose weight I am struggling to fit in my clothes. 

Anyway best get back to work.

Done 1 train ticket but need to try and get the taxi back and it’s more complicated. 

Hottub refilling so all clean and visited dogs aunt. 

Deleted our stupid candy crush game and learning Spanish instead on Duolingo. Dg is obviously doing Danish. So much better use of time. She’s stuck on bread in Danish lol. We have 3 extra letters æ ø å.  They are hard to pronounce. 

Joint account empty I had to put £70 in it annoying but can’t be helped loads of visitors this month. 

Off to hit some golf balls in a bit then golf game tomorrow afternoon. They are usually in the morning so it’s quite nice

All accounts now filled back up which is nice so my account wont be hit so hard. I will have to add quite a bit for having my mum and family here which is only fair as we always stay with them and have Christmas etc. Just wish food was not so expensive. 

Premium Bond day tomorrow I am getting excited (sad I know) as no wins last month and £500 go in a month and the rate have increased a while back. I always like when it goes up. 

Still doing my Spanish and DG doing her Danish. My screen time was down 66% from last week after I deleted my stupid game made a big difference but week it is comparing it to was high as we were travelling but I do not miss the game which is fab. 

Been doing a lot of exercise and my body is suffering. Bootcamp is in 6 weeks and its a whole weekend Friday to Monday. Saturday we did 2 classes in the morning and then played 18 holes Sunday (took 4.5 hours) and then today two really tough classes back to back. My legs are aching and I struggle to walk down the stairs. 

Diet has not been terrible yesterday was only two meals although dinner was large but no snacking and today smoothie at 11am when back from gym and dinner at 2pm then Slimfast in the evening or porridge with berries. 

I am feeling motivated which is really nice. If you want to take a sneak preview of the type of property we would love in Denmark here is a link.

Lovely house TG

Thanks guys it is the sort of thing that would really suit us both and with the cheap land you could really have some fun with the outside areas and garden. We have kind gone off the campervan idea and moving more towards scouting out different areas of Spain and if we like something maybe purchase a mobile home. It would be good to have somewhere to go and play golf for the 3 months of the year its too cold in Denmark and if you drove you would have a car while living there. It would also be lovely for DG to have a bit of Britain (in Spain) for a few months of the year. Lots to think about but very exciting 

Also in big new - drum roll please - 

I WON £250 ON THE PREMIUM BONDS

Very happy TG this morning. Less so DG as she has had to travel 2 hours for a work things that is not happening and 2 hours back. Glad it is not me. I just have to go out and get some cash for DGs counselling tomorrow.

Team meeting starts now best be on time.

Oh dear forgot to post this yesterday

Busy work day today but all good. Will not know until 11pm tonight if we are to go off in the hot air balloon tomorrow. This was Dg's present to me for Christmas a couple of year ago and we swapped it from a round of golf at St Andrews to 2 hot air balloon rides AM. It will be an early start but this will be the third attempt and they expire in November. Also got work tomorrow but I can work late no problem. 

Gym at 6pm for 2 classes wont be able to do next week as I am away Wednesday. DG had a good counselling session today working on her insecurities and how that impacts our relationship when she does not tell me what is happening.

Anyway back to today we finally did the hot air balloon ride and it was amazing. Well worth doing and really good and could see from Portsmouth right up to the skyline of London. So glad we did it think it was much better than trying to get that round in at St Andrews in Scotland with all the logistics. 

We had to get up at 3am and could not go to bed before 11pm as you had to call the hot line so very tired now do not think I will make gym tonight.
