Thanks @dawnybabes, not yet but apparently on its way!
Isn't it @ladyholly, shame we have to spend it on build stuff but I think I'll put 1k of it for my next year's LISA pot so I'm not worrying about that all year, and so that some of his money lasts a bit longer

Annoying start to the day with an email from ebay saying they're charging me the postage for the item that apparently never arrived despite me having refunded in full and providing the tracking information. It's 'only' a few quid so will have to suck it up rather than pointlessly fight but won't be using ebay for listings in future.
But I received my cakes which was super quick and they look lush, very pleased

Waited in for neighbour's electrician so that was most of the afternoon. Good job I had plenty of build admin to keep me occupied 😂
