Popped over to mums for a morning cuppa and exchange of bits, she has stewed some apples which is one of my favourite wintery ways of getting a portion of f&v in

Free exercise of half wussy situps
You started doing yours @KajiKita? 😘

Changed the bedding. Rest of big flat clean will happen at some point 😁

Good steps with Mr PIP making the most of the sunshine and getting olio breads (and Eccles cakes nom)

Beer with camra discount, did financial planning- won £4.90 (headed for build aim pot)

Dinner is supermarket deal but we get double the amount of meals out of them than they're intended to be so we're considering that mse when we're knackered!
