@YorksLass, I'm so very sorry to hear of your loss. Sending hugs (if wanted). You will be in many people's thoughts and prayers. If we can offer any support, please let people know. Equally, if you need time away, do what's right for you. xxI think a bit of sunshine is good for frugal living. (Cranky40)

My condolences, YorksLass.What we found helpful when my Father died last year, is to take pictures during this time, and make them into a little album after the funeral. Everything moves so fast, that it is very soothing to look at this album afterwards. It's small, just about 20 pictures.Are you wombling, too, in '22? € 58,96 = £ 52.09Wombling in Restrictive Times (2021) € 2.138,82 = £ 1,813.15Wombabeluba 2020! € 453,22 = £ 403.842019's wi-wa-wombles € 2.244,20 = £ 1,909.46Wombling to wealth 2018 € 972,97 = £ 879.54Still a womble 2017 #25 € 7.116,68 = £ 6,309.50Wombling Free 2016 #2 € 3.484,31 = £ 3,104.597
