    Not today - lunch out with a friend at a garden centre and a few pretties might have jumped into the car to come home with me … 🤔😉

    Good good morning guys
    It will be another NSD for me today as I’m not planning on going anywhere I can spend money.
    It looks absolutely beautiful outside but quite chilly so I’m going to take today slowly doing next weeks menu plan, bit of gentle tidying and make something warming for tea. There’s motorbike racing on most of the day for OH so I’ll have a nap this afternoon or at least a lie down as although my brain is ready to rejoin the real world my body is still very much in recovery mode.
    Well done everyone and hugs for those who need one
