An in-between phase

I hadn't heard that about not doing the washing on New Year's Day before. Guess what I did earlier....🤦‍♀️

It enhances all the things I dislike most @EssexHebridean, enforced jollity, enforced poignancy, amateur drinkers being loud, being told what time I can go to bed 😂

Being on the top floor of a block of flats we did have a stunning view of the fireworks, even one corner of the big mayor of London display, and I'm glad London did ourselves and the country proud, apparently it was Europe's biggest nye event with 100,000 people attending!
But I did feel horribly sorry for all the animals and people with trauma, and kept quietly calling 'sorry, you'll be okay' out the window to startled birds flapping by, because I am a right daft ha'penny sometimes

Laundry and bit of a flat clean, using minimal/budget products. Got friends coming over tomorrow evening so might as well do the rest of the cleaning tomorrow

Dinner is using up our copious potatoes to make wedges to go with omelette

Slowdown

Your finds when out and about really amaze and amuse. I envisage you strutting the streets with a Cath Kidston purse full of money box coins tucked under your arm whilst de fluffing a miniature unicorn with the lint rollers 😂

Spot on @Slowdown 😁
I expect I'm the odd neighbour everyone laughs at but if it gets us a couple more quid in the flat pot I'm fine with that!

Blackcats

Your walks are like treasure hunts.  Your finds would make a great basis for that party game where random items are covered up on a table, uncovered briefly and then you try to remember as many as possible.  The Generation Game conveyor belt without the conveyor belt.
