Marti is a great shout @Sun_Addict's friend. How does anyone *not* have a crush on someone singing Bowie's Let's Dance in a (almost literally 😁) husky voice?! Very Roxy Music, if it wasn't so unlikely I'd go for Bryan Ferry
I bet he's aged well @beanielou1 -
Today's mse doings:
Admin
Tidying
Comping
Freezer sorted we hope
The big spider creature that sometimes lives on the kitchen ceiling came out to supervise then went back to hibernation once the freezer was back in place 😁
Walk getting pizza from aldi to put in the freezer, priorities
Got a Kiehls/Kerastase freebie sample duo in the post
Prepped a lasagne, very pleased with myself for bothering. I love a lasagne but it is a time consuming faff. It had better be delicious!

Bravo on making a lasagne from scratch! 👏 I often desire lasagne and generally duck the effort … 😉

Saw Marti in concert a couple of years ago. He does the most brilliant version of Ain't No Stopping Us Now. That earworm is provided as a complimentary bonus.
given the choice of ageing music idols it's Bryan for me please. Ferry not Adams just to avoid possible disappointment.2 -
Get involved @KajiKita, it was blimmin lovely. Maybe that can be one of your Fredagsmys cosy aims, should @Blackcats feel to set this diary up for us 😊

Lasagne from scratch - haven't done that in years. Might try again now i've found a love for cooking.Made it to mortgage free but what a muddle that became
In the event the proverbial hits the fan then co-habitees are better stashing their cash than being mortgage free !!1
