Morning all. A bit of a late start for me, I enjoyed a little lie-in for a change. Normally I'm wide awake from about 6'ish and then can't get back to sleep, today I nodded off again for an hour.The sun shone yesterday until about 4pm when the sky turned really dark and the rain started. I got a washing load out on the line earlier which blew dry very quickly. My dishwasher also got a run.Today is rather fresh, so far no rain. I'll be using up some leftovers and roast limp vegetables, may make them into soup after that. There's the Monday banking to do too.Bella - great that you little one enjoyed the zoo, and I didn't sing the song!Izzy - as DP1 said, use your phone map, it'll show you where you are and you can plug in where you want to be. Once you know how to do it it's so easy and useful.Hugs to our poorlies and poorly family. Happy Monday to all.10

Hi all,
I’m in the office today. Had a rubbish nights’ sleep courtesy of a snoring DH and them him stumbling around the bedroom in the wee small hours. Men! I will be staying a bit later today as need to work on something with my boss. DH will cook a beef and mushroom stroganoff (SW-style) for us all.
Happy caravanning @TravellingAbuela x
Glad you all enjoyed the zoo visit @bellabella
Enjoy the garden visit @RosyRed – I saw the programme of how they designed/started the garden and would love to visit one day. Good call to take your own lunch!
Have a good evening everyone,

Up and off to a course at SA today - lunch there.
Came home and ventured into the ROD to find my raggedy rag doll pattern, wips and fabrics.
Mr F said he was tired after the course - I am too - done a bit of cutting up an old dress but not going to do much more today.Decluttering Achieved - 2023 - 10,364 Decluttering - 2024 - 8,365 August - 0/45
