    Awful cramps and bleeding, could really do without this

    Building Controller company saying we've overrun our deadline and they'll be handing control back to council who will charge us additional fees. It's been three weeks of the eight weeks permitted 🙄

    Survey cashout Aim £500 Got £58
    Usuals
    Survey

    Builders late of course but done for now, one more visit required
    Olio collection of tradescantia cuttings done
    Beer delivery done
    Garden delivery late but just done, all good.
    I probably should have done more research in immediate retrospect but I'm sure it'll be fine 😁

    Absolutely cream crackered.

    Yes I agree on the timber. Mine was one of the last traditional brick ones in my area apart from custom built very high spec.

    Aww, I don't miss awful cramps & bleeding at all, PIp. Try to take it a bit easier for the rest of the day. I know you have loads to do but I also remember how exhausting horrible periods are.

    2026's challenges: 1) To rebuild our Emergency Fund to at least £5k.
    2) To read 50 books (12/50) 3) The Re-Shrinking of Foxgloves 8.1kg/30kg
    Remember....if you have to put it on a credit card, extend your overdraft or take out a loan to buy whatever it is, you probably can't afford it, as that's not your money, it's somebody else's!
