Is that a novel or an instruction manual? 😆

😂 @jwil you looking for age affirmation or an alibi 😁
It's a recentish novel from South Korea where there is an enormous misogyny problem and there has been a little wave of female writers using writing as a way to process that and connect with other women and recognise women's issues (and existence as women).
But sociopolitical issues aside, who doesn't like a 65 year old woman assassin 🤷♀️😁
No-one be offended that the 'old woman' is 65, that's part of the cultural misogyny!

Usuals
Invigilating
Ignoring build admin, going to have to do a huge session this weekend but no time and energy what with invigilating atm!
Vinted and PB money to current account/Mr PIP birthday pot/Mum's next birthday pot/LISA pot/newly opened Christmas pot, and build pot (and North London pot 😁)
Build pot Aim £500 Got £75
Wonder if I'm stretching myself a bit thin trying for LISA and Mum birthday and Christmas at the same time, but LISA has to be attempted as its not like a thousand pounds is going to miraculously appear, Mum has a big birthday next year and I want to be in as strong a position as possible to take her away for a long weekend which isn't cheap, and Christmas pot has to be started as I love Christmas and it is just too sad to spend midwinter not buying a Baileys or a nice gift or some mince pies because the budget isn't there. So All The Pots it is!

Entered some competitions, cash please 😊
Money left over from mum birthday pot Aim £500 Got £150
Picked up new trainers which I'm relieved to report seem to fit and be comfortable (adidas cushioned soles)
Popped down to school I invigilate in as they had a wee fair so thought I'd show my face and support invigilators who were part of it
Went to friend's local birthday drinks, managed to just resist staying for 'just one more' as too much to do tomorrow!
