    Not for me yesterday - took my team out for dinner (Greek) last night and paid for one of them as well as myself as he has finally passed his qualification. Worth every penny to celebrate him and the best food I have eaten out in YEARS! 😊❤️

    Unlikely to be an NSD today either: need fuel for the car, sandwiches for lunch (got back too late last night to make it) and sticky neck for the cat!
