    You find more 'stuff' in London than I do in our little Welsh town. However, today I found 5p, then in Mr L. L. Then I picked up someone's Visa card. Hardly any customers in the shop so I walked round trying to find it's owner - I received some very funny looks from some of the men when I asked if they'd lost a bank card - I think they thought it was a new chat up line! Eventually I returned it to a panic stricken lady who only noticed it missing when she went to pay. Her name was on the card so I was able to check I was returning it to the right person. I had my reward when I walked out of the shop & found 10p!

    I did @beanielou, spent the afternoon under the duvet reading The Mirror and the Light

    That was very decent of you @kayannie and I'm glad you got good karma

    Marvellous @WelshmansDaughter, that's a quid in the dentistry pot!

    Checked emails, rolled outta bed and entered the omaze flash draw by post before postal collection

    Admins

    Reading in bed. Eating chocolate. Occasionally got up to do small tasks as I thought it was a bit much not even doing the washing up while Mr PIP is at work

    Popped over to mums with some magazines and got some allotment grub in return

    I have now reverted to doing nothing much at all

    That sounds like a balanced day to me, if you are feeling grot. Well done 😊

    I found a £1 coin and a 2p coin in the washing machine this morning. I have NO idea where they appeared from as I had put my stuff in the machine, which had NO POCKETS …. 🤷‍♀️😂

    😂 @KajiKita
    How nice is it that even your appliances are wanting to support you while you have a break from work, everything has your back 😊

    I fessed up to Mr KK as the likelihood is very high that it was his! 😉
