Today’s good thing was me and a workmate finally getting around to catching up with a former work mate who has been very ill but doing much better now. It was great to see him, and a real reminder not to take our health for granted.27/5/17 Mort 64705 BTs 1904031/12/17 Mort 59815 BT 1673007/04/20 Mort 49208 BT 1572128/07/20 Mort 47387 BT 1263414/11/20 Mort 45905 BT 10134 20/05/21 Mort 42335 BT 686811/08/22 Mort 32050 BT 2915Sealed Pot Challenge 16 Number 52 -
