    Happy Silver Anniversary! 🎉
    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!

    Happy anniversary! Great that the takeaway was cheaper than before.

    I read too quickly and thought that what with competitive energy prices Mr EH has had a hot wash with white vinegar 😂
