    Lovely card. I’ve not made a Pom Pom for decades, they were such fun 😁

    I should be tidying and sorting the house and van today ready to go away tomorrow. We’re heading to a pretty little Welsh town with a river, canal and heritage train line. They also have a big concert/exhibition hall where we will visit a model train show on Saturday. We stayed at a lovely little sight near the canal last year and are booked again from tomorrow. Instead of sorting things though I’m watching catch up Corrie my get up and go has got up and gone. I feel totally shattered. There’s not that much to do tbh but I can’t motivate myself. The weather was certainly different this time last year. I remember complaining about the heat ☀️ I’m looking forward to seeing some friends there. I’m sure Dh will find something he ‘needs’ 😂😂😂
    Then we’re off again next weekend to a different part of Wales- South Wales next time. I haven’t been there for about 30 years….it’s where we went on our honeymoon nearly 45 years ago 😳😂😂

    It didn’t take long to sort things out once I actually got my backside into gear. Everything was washed and ready to pack. Just debating whether or not to go to SW tomorrow. I have been absolutely terrible - I might just take the hit and pay for my week’s absences and go when we get back after our trip to South Wales. I haven’t been consistent listening to the hypnotherapy tapes. When Dh is at home I don’t seem to get chance to scootle off on my own. He doesn’t know I’ve been - I did listen today and have been much better for it…….not sure how useful they’ve been to be honest but they’re very relaxing 😏😁 I suppose time will tell whether I loose weight in the long term. I’ve lost half a stone which is very slow but better than putting it on 👍

    You’re half a stone lighter, still a win no matter how long it’s taken.

    Half a stone is a lot of weight, well done. Have a great trip 🌟
