    Steps away (looking back over her shoulder)…

    Steps back again… now resisting the double pull of V1nted and elsewhere online. Doesn't solve the storage problem, but that's a mere detail.

    I went for coffee with one of the team this morning, didn't get home till late lunchtime so I never got round to soup making. I've spent the afternoon and part of the evening on work stuff, which, thankfully, is a lot less frustrating than the other day.

    I've also bought a mop/squeegy thingy for the bathroom ceiling. First try of it tonight and the detachable head fell off into the bath, which was full. So much for drying the ceiling. I've tied a cloth round the end now so it's useable.

    Dinner was fish fingers for me and a ready meal for DH. Last of the gourmet chefs.

    I think a bit of sunshine is good for frugal living. (Cranky40)
